SubjectCsound on NT
I'm thinking of moving to a Windows NT machine. Does anyone use Csound under
NT and does it work OK?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I've been using Csound on NT intermittently for about 6 months, and it's
running smooth.

Oh, yes!=20
I did so, it's OK, of course.

Thank you!

I played around with XCSound for a while and found it worked quite well on my P
200. There are very impressive demos mixing synthesis, digital audio playback,
and midi control in real-time. You can use it as a Windows sound card as well
(audio out and wavetable midi). The high degree of compatibility with existing
sco and orc files is another big plus.

I also had problems with clicks and pops, but didn't spend the time to track
down. I haven't used XCSound for a while now, as I'm kind of been in batch
processing mode lately.

After gotten the advices I tried to use the wg-opcodes again and can not figure
out, how to use them:

Your first examble works fine.
a1  	wgflute  30000, 400, 0.2, 0.1, 0.1, 0.15, 0, 0, 1, 50

But this works not as expected (csound version 3.52 at Linux 2.0.35): 
a1  	wgflute  kamp, 400, 0.2, 0.1, 0.1, 0.15, 0, 0, 1

The first note of a score will not be played, so if you try only one note you
get nothing.


Your second example does not work either (on my maschine):
a1  	wgflute  30000, kfq, 0.2, 0.1, 0.1, 0.15, 0, 0, 1, 50

csound needs allmost all of my cpu power and seems to do nothing for a long
time (!?)

Futhermore iminfreq seems to have an influence on the pitch:
a1  	wgflute  30000, 400, 0.2, 0.1, 0.1, 0.15, 0, 0, 1, p4

with:
f1 0 8192 10 1
i1 0 2 200
i1 + 2 300
i1 + 2 399
e

same with kjet:
a1  	wgflute  30000, 400, p4, 0.1, 0.1, 0.15, 0, 0, 1, 50

f1 0 8192 10 1
i1 0 2 .1
i1 + 2 .2
i1 + 2 .3
e

(And I can't notice the difference in the noise-amount)


But perhaps the failure is quite another, in this example nothing changes but
every note is different (!)
a1  	wgflute  30000, 400, .1, 0.1, 0.1, 0.15, 0, 0, 1, 50

f1 0 8192 10 1
i1 0 2 
i1 + 2 
i1 + 2 
i1 + 2 
i1 + 2
e

(This effect will be gone, if an other kjet is used, say 0.2)

A similar effect can be tried with:
a1  	wgclar  30000, 400, .2, 0.1, 0.1, 0.15, 0, 0, 1, 50

f1 0 8192 10 1
i1 0 2 
i1 + 2 
i1 + 2 
i1 + 2 
i1 + 2
e

Here kstiff seems to be changed without really be changed but happily no side
effect in pitch happens.

Sorry, but do I really missuse these opcodes?

hoping for some fixes

Torsten

Were you a student of teh great Kahane?  I remember him terrifying speakers
at conferences!  In 1976 I had just got my first calculator, an HP25
and he saw it, took it and started showing me teh errors in teh arithmetic!

I never could so arithmetic though.  We had a test at age 11 where I got 98%
because I coudl not do the simple subtraction -- algebra was trivial of 
course.

Although I don't call myself a mathematician, I am still lousy at
Arithmetic. I can deal with fairly high level algorithms and solid geometry
as long as the computer does the actual adding together of beans.

I even have to have Quicken do my check book because I will forget to carry
the three and run myself out of money! I wonder if we can identify a trend
here...

Subject: [tuning] PB homepage

From: Peter Blasser 

Check out my homepage v. 1.0 at http://www.oberlin.edu/~pblasser.  It has
some csound scores and orcs, lots of music clips, a program for generating
csound scores in 22 tone equal temperament.  All the music is in some form
of alternative tuning, like 22tet 31tet JI, etc..  There are sections on
instruments, and a few interactive java applets.  

AND IT'S NOT CHEESY.

The main color is green, and I didn't put any silly background images in

The Analog Devices XTCsound SDK consists of:
- multi-channel PCI card (6-out, 4-in; analog on 1/8" mini-phono, digital on
spdif)
- Windows 95 software (sorry, no 98 or NT yet!)
- drivers, manuals, examples

The windows drivers support MIDI/wav playback from other applications.  It does
not support multi-channel audio files or audio recording from other
applications.

The price is US$1000.  To order, send a note requesting information to:

Hello Csounders,

I now have two computers allowing me to run a sequencer on one and
csound on the other. Everything works fine when using realtime MIDI
input. However, when I then save the result to a MIDI file (in the
seuqencer) and try to render it offline, csound tells me that it
does not support format 1 MIDIfiles.
Will this change in the future ? What can I do (are there conversion
utilities for unix/linux around) ?

I need MIDI file input to allow full 44kHz stereo with kr=sr for the
end product. While recording and experimenting with the sequencer,
csound is set to 22kHz mono )or even less) and kr=sr/10 to allow good realtime
performance (Pentium II 350)

Dear Csounders-

At the request of Dr. Richard Boulanger, I am preparing a new edition of the
manual. With extensive help from Dr. Boulanger and John ffitch, the manual
is being revised and brought into conformance with the new Csound book Dr.
Boulanger is editing for MIT Press. We expect the new edition to be much a
more accurate and complete reference for public Csound. 

I expect to release the new Print Edition (in Adobe Acrobat or .pdf format)
and ASCII Text Edition early next week. Within a few weeks, there will be a
new HTML Edition, based on the same sources. As in the past, I will do my
best to keep all these manuals current.

We hope that these manuals will be of greater help to you in you Csound
adventures.


-David.

Any CMask users out there? I've been using cmask for a few months now.
It's just way too much fun!

However, I'm getting tired of editing those mask parameter lists by
hand. Does anyone know of a graphical editor specifically for tendency
masks? Or even a generic graphical line segment editor I might be able
to modify? I hate to take time away from composing to write one, but I'm
not being very productive with this hand editing...

BTW, the link to CMask on the CSound Front Page
(http://kgw.tu-berlin.de/~abart/) is broken tonight, perhaps the server
is just down...

Hi all:

Just found this today:

This page features Postscript versions of the papers presented at the
DAFX 98 conference.  Lots of cool stuff, if you are a fledgling digital

This is to announce the release of Silence 4.1. Silence is my Java =
system for algorithmic composition and synthesis, using Music Modeling =
Language for generating scores, and JCsound for synthesizing them. =
Changes in this release include a simplified user interface, some bug =
fixes, and a major change in the layout of Music Modeling Language to =
make it well-formed XML throughout.I also have added some sample =
compositions, Triptych for Silence and Cloud Strata, which was performed =
at the 1998 International Computer Music Conference, for JCsound..

Silence is available at http://www.pipeline.com/~gogins. Please email =
bug reports or questions to me at gogins@nyc.pipeline.com. Silence is =
licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License and is =
available without charge, though donations are welcome.

At this point, I regard the basic class design, language, and interfaces =
of Silence to be reasonably stable. In particular, I foresee no =
additional changes to the INode interface or the MML language, so I =
anticipate that scores created now will continue to be usable in the =
future.  I therefore invite contributors to write their own =
compositional INode classes for Silence.

I have discussed with them some of the ways in which they analyze voices. Some of the parameters they like to track are: Pitch, jitter, shimmer, and for normal speaking: pitch average and variation. I have been working on implementing some of the analysis routines in Csound. If someone cares to give me a reference for some algorithms for this type of processing I would appreciate it. I notice that Csound's LPC analysis has a pitch tracker which may be helpful. As I was experimenting I created a normal speech to whisper converter: sr=44100 kr=22050 ksmps=2 nchnls=2 ; LPC Resynthesis Whisper instr 12 idur = p3 ktimpnt linseg 0, idur, idur krmsr, krmso, kerr, kcps lpread ktimpnt, "trantr.lpc" anz1 rand krmso anz butterhp anz1, 1000 asig1 = anz*(kerr-.0002)*2 aout lpreson asig1 outs aout*10, aout*10 endin ; Sta Dur i12 0 8.69 The LPC was run with default options to create the file trantr.lpc from a sample of spoken text. Conversion of normal speech to resynthesized normal speech seems to be a bit more difficult. The simulations of glottal pulses I've tried result in an artificial and grainy tone to the voice. I tried using buzz without much luck. I've also tried using oscil with a simulated glottal pulse as follows: f5 0 8192 8 0 1024 1 256 .7 256 .9 64 -.8 256 -.65 256 -.75 256 -.5 192 0 1024 0 4608 0 which did not sound too great either. I am beginning to wonder if it is perhaps the filter interpolation which introduces the gritty sound quality. Does anyone know of an example of using LPC to resynthesize a normal voice or does anyone know of a good waveform for simulating a glottal pulse? There was some research at UCSF on training children with language learning disabilities using modified speech which resulted in a Nature article a couple of years ago. The speech was time stretched and certain consonants like "b" and "d" were amplified. This later evolved into a program called "Fast Forward." I wrote an orc/sco a while ago that attempts to implement this type of modified speech using pvoc. If anyone is interested in this it is in my zip file (mikelson.zip at bath) entitled "dog.orc". I am not sure how close this orc comes to reproducing the modified speech used at UCSF and FastForward. (Note Fast Forward is making some pretty sensational claims which makes me a bit suspicious of this program.) Bye, Hans Mikelson

Works fine, David.  I've used it with SP3 and SP4 without any issues.
