I'm new to this list as well as Csound (I just installed it a couple days ago
in my PC), so this may be a silly question only a beginner would ask.
But I'm wondering why the score files contain info on the sounds, i.e. the GEN
routines.  It seems like the score file should just have notes as well as
other info to control the instruments, and the orchestra file should have all
info about the instruments the score plays, including the sound that
instrument produces.  Why this inconsistency?  Why is info on the sound of
instruments spread across both files?
