| .csd is the extension of a file type introduced by Michael Gogins, which include the
orchestra, the score and the command line flags in a single text file. It is now
introduced also in DirectCsoud. Here are the specifications:
The following example is a "csd" text file template. The format of .csd files follows
the
same principles as SGML, XML, or HTML. Each section of data is prefaced by a start
(<>) tag and finished with an end (>) tag, and sections can be nested
hierarchically.
The Csound tags (boldface) are as follows, with explanatory comments (italics) and
sample data:
; Csound structured data file.
; Command-line options
-W
; Orchestra statements.
sr 44100
kr 441
ksmps 100
nchnls 2
; Instrument definitions.
; The first comment following on the same line as an instrument number is the name of
the instrument.
instr 1 ;Toot1
endin
instr 2 ;Toot2
endin
; Standard Csound function ("f") statements, note ("i") statements, or comments (";").
f 1 2 3
i 1 2 3 4
