SubjectError compiling winsound unresolved symbol _xfilename
Hi,

I get the following error when trying to compile a version of csound_src I
just downloaded.

argdecode.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _xfilename

I can't seem to resolve this unresolved symbol.

Regards,
Hans Mikelson

Hello, I'm new to csound -- about a week now :)

I've installed csound-3.482 on a dec alpha running linux and
I'm having trouble reading and writting formatted files.  For example:

%csound -W -o intro.wav intro.orc intro.sco
%csound -U sndinfo test.wav
util SNDINFO:
test.wav:
        no recognizable soundfile header
%sox test.wav -t ossdsp /dev/dsp
sox: WAVE header not found

If I have an instrument that uses soundin on a file with a valid
header, it cant read it either.

on the other hand,

%csound -o devaudio intro.orc intro.sco

works fine...

Am I doing something silly or is this a bug?

This is something of an off-the-cuff guess, as I know nothing of the dec
alpha...but it may be that byte-swapping of WAVE-format data is not
happening as it should  (or happening when it shouldn't). WAV files are
indigenous to the (W)Intel platform; try using AIFF format soundfiles
instead.

Which DEC Alpha port are you using?  THE Alpha is a 64bit architecture and
this can be a real pain.  Someone implemented it (cannot remember who)
and i am not sure how far they got

Hello,


Im just starting to learn about csound. I think i will take centuries to learn something of it if i dont get a book. Next week i will ask for some book on USA, so i could ask for a csound one.

Can you recomend me some?

 

Thanks in advance,

Hello again,

First of all apologies to anyone who is waiting on the 
multichannel to DirectSound3D player (if anyone of 
course) - its being worked on but I have been away for 
christmas. 

While I was away I had a chance to work through some of 
the stuff in Curtis Roads and Dodge books (both highly 
recomended) and discovered FOF synthesis. Does anyone 
have any concrete examples I can play with - when I started 
playing with the operator I discovered that without a 
model of how different parameters effect things I am 
really stabbing in the dark. I worked through the excellent 
tutorial in the CSound manual and have got some vaguely 
vowel sounds from the tables in the Dodge book (although 
his percentages for vibrato sounded very high I had to 
reduce them a lot). What I am looking for is more speech 
type stuff - I've got lots of lovely samples of emulaters and 
mellotrons for the more choral stuff. I don't want it to sound 
realistic but I do like the quality of FOF sounds...

cheers 

mark

That was me.  I got pretty far--it hasn't broken on me yet, and there
are no outstanding Alpha-specific issues.  The canonical sources is
missing an important script that needs to be used in compiling for Alpha.
I'll re-send it to you for possible inclusion in future releases.

I can read and write WAV files just fine on my Alpha.  It sounds like your
binary was compiled without all the patches required for that platform.

It appears that the canonical source is missing a script that I used
to patch up Csound's (mis-)usage of C "long", even though it incorporates
my other patches.  Building on a Alpha will succeed, and the result will
have most opcodes functional--but file formats (other than raw) will be
screwed up.

I can send you the missing script, or even a binary for Alpha if necessary.
I'll re-send the script to John Fitch as well, along with a brief README
on its use.

Sadly, the ultimate "Csound Book" will not be available until well into
1999. There are several books on computer music which discuss the
techniques used, in sometimes exhaustive detail. It had occurred to me
to ask - has anyone developed a basic bibliography of core CM texts 
which is or could be made available on a web page? Or as part of a
Csound FAQ?

It is in any case something I am planning for for my own website.  So I
am inviting suggestions for books to include (post to me directly, or to
the list, whichever - please include web references if available).


In the meantime, this list amounts to an enormous 'living Csound Book',
so one solution  is just to ask questions here....
