Does this have anything to do with the "rich music file" format I've heard
rumours about? It also combines a MIDI file with the samples and purports
to be the next generation MOD file. Are there any links out there on this?

entertainment capital of the world, the Organizing Committee has taken
several steps to make it a pleasure for the entire family to be at SMC'97.
Hyatt Orlando is a family-oriented facility. A child, aged 10 and under,
eats free at a Hyatt Orlando restaurant if accompanied by an adult. The
Medieval Times will be an unforgettable experience and feast for the entire
family. Other special and discounted family events will be organized in and
around Orlando.
STUDENT EVENTS: Special sessions will be organized for student papers. A
student paper is defined as one in which the primary author(s) of the paper
are degree-seeking students at the time the paper is submitted. An award
will be given to the Best Student Paper that is presented at a student
session. Please indicate on the submitted paper abstract if the paper is to
be presented at a student session and indicate which author(s) are
degree-seeking students. Other special events are also being planned to
accommodate and encourage student attendance.
CALL FOR CONTRIBUTED PAPERS: The Technical Programs Committee solicits
papers for presentation at the conference. All papers will be reviewed by u=
p
to three referees for technical merit and content on the basis of an abstrac=
t
of no more than 300 words. Papers accepted for presentation will appear in
the Conference Proceedings. All abstracts must have a cover page containing
the title of the paper along with the names, affiliations, and complete
mailing addresses of all authors, as well as a rank-ordered list of the thre=
e
designated topic areas (see list) most closely related to the paper. The
cover sheet should list the two-digit number along with the name of each of
the three designated topic areas. All correspondence will be directed to th=
e
first named author unless otherwise indicated. Six pages will be allocated
in the Proceedings for each accepted paper. Papers which exceed this length
will be charged on a $100.00 per page basis. Each paper presentation should
take no more than 20-25 minutes. While paper abstracts can be submitted by
e-mail (smc97@rpi.edu), the full length papers must be submitted in hard
copy, consistent with the guidelines which will be provided to those authors
whose paper abstracts are accepted.
CALL FOR INVITED SESSIONS/TRACKS: Invited sessions (each comprised of 4-5
papers) and invited tracks (each comprised of at least 2 sessions) are
solicited in all topic areas. Survey papers, case studies, or panel
discussions could also form the basis of invited sessions. Each prospective
session/track organizer must submit a proposal, including the title of the
session/track, a rank-ordered list of the three topic areas most closely
related to the session/track, and a list of authors with paper titles and
abstracts.
CALL FOR EXHIBITORS: Leading publishers and vendors of computational
cybernetics and simulation material are encouraged to exhibit their products=
.
Please contact the Organizing Committee for additional information.
CALL FOR SPONSORS: Universities, companies and government agencies are
encouraged to provide either in-kind support or monetary contributions; they
will be formally acknowledged in the Final Program which will contain

About Hyatt Orlando ... Located on 56 landscaped acres, 20 miles from Orland=
o
International Airport, 1.5 miles from Walt Disney World Resort, and a short
drive from Sea World, Bush Gardens, Kennedy Space Center and Universal
Studios. It includes a 20,000 square-foot exhibit hall, 22 meeting rooms,
and 924 guest rooms, all arranged in four courtyard clusters, each with its
own heated swimming pool, whirlpool and lighted tennis court. The Hyatt
Orlando also offers a variety of dining and entertainment options.
About Orlando ... A quarter century ago, Orlando was a quiet little town
known for its inviting year- round sunshine and its vast, productive citrus
groves. Today, it is the world's number one vacation destination, and the
"quiet little town" has become one of the nation's top choices for
conventions and conferences. The city's amazing transformation from rural
agricultural center to business and entertainment mecca began in 1971 with
the opening of the Walt Disney World. Orlando is now home to numerous theme
parks, dozens of high tech firms, the University of Central Florida, and the
National Basketball Association's Orlando Magic. Mid-October weather in
Orlando is ideal: a dry tropical climate with a 70 to 80 degrees fahrenheit
temperature range.
About Medieval Times ... The year is 1093 AD and you are the guests of the
royal family. As you wine, dine, and make merry at a sumptuous medieval
feast, you will see spectacular pageantry, dramatic horsemanship, dangerous
swordplay, falconry, sorcery, romance =F1 and to crown it all =F1 an authent=
ic
jousting tournament. Come cheer your own brave knight and take your part in
history. All this makes for a perfect evening for adults and children.

I discovered on Sunday that the support team here had moved emacs in

Hi all,
I am relatively new to csound and am looking for an orchestra/score
setup that will:
a. shift the pitch of a soundin file without changing the duration
b. change the duration of a soundin file without changing the pitch
Any help is appreciated. Variations on this idea are welcome as well.
Many thanks,

hi! the latest csound.ppc (0.2.0b) is great. it's totaly stable on my
machine (8500/120) and it's so nice not to have to quite every thirty
seconds!
but i'm having a strange problem: sometimes when there are errors in my
orc/sco files, they won't appear in the output window until i hit kill and
close. that is, i hit generate, the output window opens and maybe writes a
line or two, then perf either says "perfing" or "perf aborted" and just
waits. nothing further happens in the output window. then if i hit close
and then kill, all of the error messages will flash on the output window
for a moment just before the window closes! i've been going crazy perfing
pieces over and over again just so that i can try to read, in that brief
moment, what sorts of errors i've dreamed up this time! has anyone else
using this version (0.2.0b) seen similar behavior? any suggestions?
here's an obviously flawed orc/score that will cause the behavior i'm
talking about:
orc:
+++++
sr = 44100
kr = 441
ksmps = 100
nchnls = 1
instr 1
asampout = asamp1 + asamp2
out asampout
endin
+++++
sco:
+++++
i1 0 10

It happens so often to me I thought it was a feature not a bug. I figured
it was supposed to help us develop our code debugging skills ;^).
But seriously, for version 0.2b software it's a minor inconvenience IMHO.

Hi Doug,
Try changing the size of the output text buffer in the set buffers
dialog in csound.ppc. It gets set to 50000 somehow and all the messages
get put in the buffer, which doesn't get flushed until quitting.
In our next release we have put a lot more buffer flushing in the code.
We have also fixed a bug that causes a crash with a bad MIDI orchestra,
added some new MIDI opcodes, support (beta) for 32bit float soundfiles,
REAL TIME SOUND INPUT (marginally useful, long delay, but what the hell -
we have it basically working (well not crashing) on the development
machine) and most of all we have incorporated John Fitches changes and
bug fixes and all of 3.45 opcodes into the release.
We are hoping to get this out within the next week or so. We are hoping...
There are also sopme changes to the Front End ("launcher"), of which Matt
Ingalls is most aware - these are just the upcoming perf fixes.
Dave

call it a bug or a feature, the problem is due to the port. To use the
UNIX standard io (printf, etc...) we have to (unless we want to put in
a lot of work) use this SIOUX window supplied by Metrowerks.
The problem is that the window is really slow and can slow up generation
up to 20 times, unless a large text buffer is used.
But, if there is an error in the orchestra, the text buffer may never
fill up and consequently NEVER be flushed!!
To get around this, set the text buffer to '0' when debugging an
orchestra (from the 'set buffers' menu option), or you can use the
'listing file' piping output to a text file
rather than the SIOUX window.
Another problem (which may only be with the new version yet to be released
- code Warror 11) is that the buffer is automatically flushed after every
endof line. so, if you are doing score generation stuff it could still
really slow it down (so you have to either turn off note amplitude
messages or use a listing file)
i think this is listed in the manual, plus was listed in the 'known bugs'
which accidentally was lost (sorry) with the last release...
we are planning on fixing this eventually, but it will be a big pain in
the butt!!
