That message means that it failed to allocate 1764120 bytes of memory,
which is about 16.5Mb.  How much memory does your computer have?
Looks like a problem with your hardware rather than with the system
per se.

Do.  octdown produces a-sig, and w-data is produced by spectrum.  Yes

We had to learn all the cryptic assembly stuff really the hard way hardly without any

a few keystrokes....HAH !

I assign p3 to sustain, add the attack and release to it to obtain a total duration, and then reassign the total duration to p3. This seems to force the note to last at least as long as the desired attack and release. Of course, this best suits notes that sound more or less like notes from instrumental music. (b) I always impose an overall "damping" envelope using linseg with a short attack and release to muffle any untoward clicks at the beginning or end of a note. The actual duration of the attack and release must be changed to suit the desired timbre. It ranges from .001 seconds to .05 seconds, usually.

I need to have Csound running in realtime reading a channel from a sequencer and spitting out printfs through a pipe to a java TCP/IP little program (OK!... I know... don't argue...I need that...:-}). Now, using Maldonado's RT 1.9 version on Win95 I can redirect one track from cakewalk to a midi yoke junction (using MIDIOX), read this junction in csound, print out what I want and still play the other tracks on another midi device, GREAT! BUT if I pipe stdout to the TCP/IP program it won't work because I'm running csound from a dos window and DOS is NOT multitasking. What obviously happens is that the program waits for csound to finish and sends all the information in one bulk...of course what I need is to spit out to the client each line at the right time. My second option is using Windows NT. In this case the TCP/IP stuff works just right, it sends the info as it is receiving it. MIDIOX is fine, it has drivers working for NT. BUT Maldonado's version hangs on NT, at least for me...csound.exe doesn't find devaudio and winsound neither... Is anyone running csound with realtime output (and midi input) on NT? Also, in this case, which sequencer runs fine in NT? Cakewalk doesn't, Cubase Hanged, Power Tracks hangs 60% of the time...any suggestions (share, free, demo)? Third option: Linux. Csound should work fine with devaudio. I can run JAZZ as midi sequencer. TCP/IP should work fine I'm not sure about midi input on the linux port (anyone?). AND: is there anything similar to MIDIOX for Linux? How can I redirect a track from Jazz to csound (and the other tracks to a soundblaster)? SUMMARY: - In Win95 I need something to transform DOS into a multitasking environment :-} - In WinNT I need Maldonado's version or equivalent running (even a very alpha version) and a sequencer that doesn't hangs... - In Linux I need a MIDIOX equivalent (and an RTcsound). I know if I had a Mac I could very easily write something wonderfull in MAX, but it is not the case... I hope I haven't bothered you all so much, I'd really appreciate any help... Thanks in advance, Ruggero.

My name is Erez Webman. I'm a musician and an experienced Csound user. I've been working with Extended Csound for about 3 month. What I do mostly is developing synthesis algorithms, mainly in the "physical modelling" and "arithmetic instruments" domains. In the next days, I'll send to this list quite a few bug reports. Well, let's start: A-RATE TABLE & TABLEI ===================== The opcodes table and tablei seems not to work correctly when used in a-rate. This can be demonstrated by the following csound program: ~~~ SCO file ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ i1 0 5 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ ORC file ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ sr = 44100 kr = 441 ksmps = 100 nchnls = 2 gifn ftgen 0, 0, 4097, 7, 0, 4097, 1 instr 1 aindex line -1000,p3,5000 aout tablei aindex,gifn,0,0,0 outs aindex,aout*30000 endin ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Incorrect output is also presented if you replace the line: aout tablei aindex,gifn,0,0,0 with the line: aout tablei aindex,gifn,0,0,1 or with the line: aout table aindex,gifn,0,0,0 However, if you replace it with the line: aout table aindex,gifn,0,0,1 the output is OK... k-rate table (and tablei) doesn't suffer from this problem. However, they do suffer from another problem, which is described in the next item. K-RATE TABLES LARGER THAN 8192 ============================== Consider the following Csound program: ~~~ SCO file ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ i1 0 5 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ ORC file ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ sr = 44100 kr = 44100 ksmps = 1 nchnls = 2 gifn ftgen 0, 0, 16385, 7, 0, 16384, 1 instr 1 kindex line -4000,p3,20000 kout tablei kindex,gifn,0,0,0 aout = kout aindex = kindex outs aindex,aout*30000 endin ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The output (aout) is a stream of zeros. If you make the table smaller (8192 or less), the output is fine. This bug probably exists also for a-rate tables, but I didn't test it.
