hi rory -

after using csound for more than twenty years, i only recently came across loscilx:

ar1 [, ar2, ar3, ar4, ar5, ar6, ar7, ar8, ar9, ar10, ar11, ar12, ar13, ar14, ar15, ar16]                loscilx xamp, kcps, ifn [, iwsize, ibas, istrt, imod, ibeg, iend]

i tried it (loading and playing 8-channel files), and it works perfectly.  i think we should propagate it more.

so i think the description in GEN01 is good and should remain as it is.

ciao -

In the GEN01 manual it states:

/channel/ -- channel number to read in. 0 denotes read all channels.

But the only opcodes that can read a stereo table are the loscil
opcodes? I find the above a little confusing. I had always imagined that
setting 0 would mean a mix of the two channels when using the table
family of opcodes that can only read one channel at a time. But setting
0 and using the table family of opcodes results in only the left channel
being read.

Would anyone object to a slight rewording of the above in the manual?
