I wonder why this does not work as I expect it:

gkInLvl        init     0.5
gkDuration    init    10
gaI            init    0

instr 1
gaI     inch      1
kAI        rms    gaI
;printk2    kAI
         if kAI > gkInLvl then
             printk2    kAI
             turnon    4
         endif
endin


I see that instrument 4 is always activated, but kAI after the if is not 
printed, and in fact the if should not be executed, since the signal 
level is much to low...

turnon runs at i-time, and putting it inside a k-time if statement is
probably not going to have the effect you want.  You may be able to make
it work using event or scoreline instead of turnon, but you'll have to
give some attention to making sure it doesn't start a new note on *every*
k-cycle for which the condition holds.  It looks like you want it to only
start a new note on the first such k-cycle.

Yes, it must be something like this. Changed it accoring a McCurdy 
sample, but still not doing what I want.
Instrument 4 is always started.
Here's the csd

Did you try event as suggested? There might be a chance that schedkwhen is running at both i and k time.

Yes, tried it with event_i too now. Instrument 4 is always started 
(should not happen), but

printk2    gkAI

is only executed when the level is exceeded.
It's a mystery to me....

event_i is another i-time opcode.  Try just event.

Yes of course! Anyhow it is solved now, I am also using a flag...

No, not event_i, that one is i-time only.
