This may be a little precipitous but I am releasing v3.48 today.
There will be binaries for DOS, Windows and Console mode; SGI Irix4.0;
and Macintosh 68K, Macintosh 68k+881, and PowerMac; all on the dream
server.
Sourcs in Unix (compressed tar), PC (ZIP) and Macintosh (SIT) formats
are also there. In addition I have placed Symantec project files for
the three Mac formats in the platforms/mac directory. Revised emacs
mode files are there as well, but they do need a little more work.
Documentation is a Version*Notes file and a ChangeLog are there as
well.
I hope to build a SUN version as soon as I can; the Atari is showing
age problems and is sulking in its tent. If/when I can get it to boot
it will follow. I know that there is a Linux version only a few days
old, so I expect that it will not be hard to build. When I get the
mythical free time I will build my own Linux version, but the kernel
keeps rejecting the ethercard.
Short notes follow. Now you now what I have been doing rather than
the marking of 35 boring LEX assignments.
I am aware that many of you have written to me with suggestions. I
have not ignored them, and have them on file for contemplation. It is
just that I was user reaction to macros, repeats, evaluations and
includes. There are still a small number of things I want to do
before this round is complete.

Release Notes for 3.48
======================
These are the release notes for version 3.48, which is mainly a
bug-fix release. These notes should be read in conjunction with
earlier release notes. The main non-bug-fix material is described in
the language changes.
Language Changes
----------------
The input or output file in -i and -o can start with a | to indicate a
process which is started to create or process audio files. This works
on Windows and Unix, but not (yet) DOS.
WAV format now supports floating samples correctly. (Richard Dobson)
Macros in orchestra and scores [Notes 1 and 2]
Repeat sections in Scores [Note 1]
#include available in orchestra and score [Notes 1 and 2]
/* */ comments allowed in orchestra and score
Removal of limit on orchestra size (ARGSPACE and ORTEXT problems)
The opcodes asin, acos and atan renamed as sininv, cosinv and taninv
so as to avoid name-space polution.
_ allowed as part of a word. Words case significant.
Limited evaluation of expressions in the score [Note 6]
Opcode Fixes
------------
reverb2 was tuned to one particular sampling rate. Replaced by
nreverb opcode. (Richard Karpen)
wgbow, flute and brass fixed in various ways
Fixes in fof2 and fog (Ekman)
shaker used to ignore krequency; now fixed
New Opcodes
-----------
pvadd (Richard Karpen) [Note 3]
taninv2 in kk and aa contexts (equivalent to atan2 in C)
printk2 which prints when a k-value changes (Gabriel Maldanado) [Note 0]
locsig, locsend, space, spsend, spdist (Richard Karpen) for locating sound
Other Changes:
-------------
On Windows permissions of output files could be wrong.
Problem on SUN fixed, which gave silence sometimes and other errors
emacs modes have new opcodes added, and some support for macros.
Pipes allowed in -L inputs, using a | as the first character of the
'filename'
-H2 and -H3 options to display heartbeat in a different way. -H1 is
equivalent to -H and -H0 is equivalent to no -H option. [Note 5]
Windows GUI Changes
-------------------
Output device selectable by menu (Richard Dobson). No equivalent code
for input yet.
Reading MIDI files fixed in interface
xyin implemented in windows [Note 4]
Heartbeat option on Extras dialog allows numbers now. [Note 5]

currently i tried winsound, csound, csoundrt
but for me(as a novice) they all seem to be not different.

I have sent John the code for the long period random generator. Here are my
thoughts on how it should be incorporated.
My feeling is that rand should be random. This means that we shouldn't worry
about exact reproduction of old scores that use rand, randh, or randi. The
actual numbers for rand() vary from machine to machine anyway, so realizations
are already different across platforms. I think that there should be a new
opcode shortrnd, which uses the ANSI call, so that you only get short period
random numbers if you specifically ask for them. This way no old scores are
broken or need to be changed, unless they specifically rely on the flawed
nature of the current rand opcode.

Some of the readers of this list express frustration at
their inability to harvest meaning from some of the postings.
One recent message seems to me to be quite likely to spawn
such a plight. I find it however, to be a group of ASCII
characters, whose mutual relationships spring in their union
in my mind, to that artistic level that I would describe as
the appreciation of poetry.
As I dodge the tomatoes and hunch to the side assuaging the
effect of fearful calls, I will now, perform my interpretation
of the piece:
'This plane is your plane; a dark music'
//
It was a dark and stormy night....
When machines first evolved to the complexity that
It was possible for them to be used,
To aid the person who would write, to a level at which
He was speedier with a machine rather than without,
A problem arose that was perhaps mostly due to the inability
Of the designers of these machines to have imagined
That the abilities of the human mechanisms for which
These monsters were designed, were far too adaptable,
To have been anticipated by a mere conglomeration of
Pressings, and fasteners and long drawn foresight.
There all too quickly came the day, when the allotted
*Parameters* were exceeded, and the first individual rose,
And said, "I have used the machine that you have made.
I have used it well, but I have come to a place where
The machine can not serve me as quickly as of I am in need.
At my point of greatest achievement in speed, the
Impacting keys would find themselves together, only to impede
One another to the point that none could find their target."
The designer reprieved to his cellar of widgets and
Springs, and Collars and Nooses and Hopes, and Tears.
When he arose, with the shining promise of a new path away
>From the shrouds that would bind us in our own
Zeal for advancement, efficiency and wealth, forsaking those
Early dreams of eternal truth, and _unmaskable_ bliss,
He lifted the newfound propeller of dreams as
High in his hands as his stature would allow, saying,
"I have improved the machine, let there be no doubt of this,
there will be no more binding of keys, nor displeasure of user.
I have confused the order of the keys of the writing machine
To the point that we all can be certain that
No professional, no artist, no prodigy, no future, will
See past the labyrinth that I have laid, (at no leisure)"
And so will the writing machine reign on, as the close
best of two in speed if second in character.
//
Or, in other words:
> dze qwerty key layout = des!gnd 2 slo down typ!stz
> + thuz 2 prevent jamupz
The interpretation of the remaining lines of the post in
question is left to the reader as an exercise.

Hi all,
I am currently using Patchwork and Silence together with various versions
of Csound (Csoundrt, WinSound). I enjoy the flexability of Csound but
want to get away from text editing to create sound. What I really would
like is an integrated frontend that relates to Csound in the style of
various softsynth packages I use. So, unless someone knows of other
frontends out there, I am going to embark on a project to create such a
beast.
I will be developing in Delphi (Win95). If anyone is interested in
joining in then all help would be more than welcome.
The main idea is that the program keeps track of all those parameters
that need to be linked between the orc,tables and score
Wish list so far:
Visual display/creation of tables
Drag & drop visual modules for op-codes (not linear as in Patchwork but
networked)
User definable modules (collection of op-codes) with sliders, buttons etc
for parameters
Dragging links between tables, op-codes etc, different colours for
different types of wire
Score editor (midi import) with display of all the parameters for each
note not just duration, velocity
The list goes on...

Hello,
Why not adding more statistic and probability opcodes in order to synthesise
like Xenakis used to do (dynamic stochastic synthesis)?
I'm a bit scared with the idea of a loop opcode because people will come back
to usual (naturally human?) ways of composition.
Olivier.

John,
Thanks a lot for the latest version, it's great.
This greatness distinguishes it sharply from some of my statements about FOG.
I must have crossed my eyes when looking at the source, because after my
suggested change, fog does NOT index the soundfile ftable properly.
Add the following lines to ugensa.c, at line 172:
/* p->spdphs must be added AFTER p-kris is calculated */
ovp->formphs = (ovp->formphs + p->spdphs) & PMASK;
This should do it. Sorry for wasting your time.
And apologies to all (any?) users of fog, since this release breaks it
in a different way, worse than before.
Regards,

Seems like there's a great deal of excellent stuff available at IRCAM that
won't run in MicroSchlock WinAnything. I refuse to apologize for not owning
a mac yet, and have been into csound and artistic DSP for a long time in NT
(and besides, somtimes I've got to have a command prompt). Also, my
experimental 486 Linux box isn't up to the task. Yet.
Now that I see all this available for Macs, particularly at IRCAM, and
particularly AudioSculpt, I'll probably start checking G3 prices on the
weekends.
In the meantime, can anyone suggest any good similar products, even
scraggly shareware, that exists on the windoze(NT) platform? Especially
things like SVP, AudioSculpt, etc....
thank you for your bandwidth
