| Has anyone out there ever successfully compiled the Csound standalone
utilities for Linux ? The makefiles are mostly optimized for compilation
on an SGI, but I need Dan Ellis's scale program as a standalone on my
Linux box. I'll happily furnish more info if anyone thinks they can help
me. TIA !
Btw, scale is not available via the Csound -U option.

The very first Archimedes were the A3xx which used the ARM 2 chip.
However, that was socketed, so you could easily upgrade it to an ARM3
by just buying it and plugging it in. The ARM3 also had hardware
support for floating point. So your A400 must have either an ARM2 or
an ARM3 (it cannot support any other processor). You probably have an
ARM2, so it would be worthwhile upgrading because the ARM3 is about
4-5 times faster..! : -)
