Subjectinstalling 3.47 at SGI
How are you all sounding, answering and asking people?

	Recently I've installed 3.47 version at a INDY
	with 6.2 OSystem.
	I'm yet a beginner in both wordls, UNIX and Csound.
	The configuration I'm used is depending on another machine that
	has enough memory for my files, and because of that all the 		
applications are installed there. When I tried to install 3.47
	version inside my machine, not depending from another, and run 			any
pvanal, sndinfo, hetro process I receive a message saying: 			"Execut
error, wrong architecture".
	What else do you need to know about this configuration
	for giving me some help?

	Thanks in advance.

That error message means that you are using a binary compiled for the
wrong operating system.  I do not have access to a Irix6.2 machine so
I cannot build you one.  Either build it yourself, or get hold of a
build from someone liek Jean Piche.

My cheap and easy solution is that I use a table lookup function on the
audio output.  It looks like a compressor in that it is a 1to1 mapping up
to a certain point and then it curves, tending towards a gradient of zero. 
This will scale down any samples that are not TOO huge but will,
obviously, distort them.  The distortion is a LOT more pleasant than
digital clipping and I quite like it.  I've started using it in all my
csound stuff as it means I never have to worry about clipping.  I can
scale the volumes and remove it later if I want a perfectly clean signal.

Dunno about that :)

The other way is to generate your file in floats (on the platforms which
support it) and scale it all at the end.

	I know several DJ's who have been using Csound for a while.  So you're not
alone.

At the request of a couple of csound subscribers I've attempted to give an
example of how I implement the volume limiting I described in my earlier
mail.  I originally intended to use a function for the curve, but in the
end I used a table into which I placed a few values from this curve and
I'm afraid I've completely lost the original function.  It's not complex..
it was the result of about 5 minutes fiddling with gnuplot :) The curve in
my example isn't really very curved at all, but you can imagine that if
you added a few extra points you could achieve a much better
approximation.  The important thing is that it works, quite well :)

Matt

ps. I use 16bit WAVs..my constants reflect that.

Has anyone got this to work? I'm using Gabriel Maldonado's version of
csound with a Turtle Beach MultiSound Pinnacle. I've tried -iadc,
-idevaudio, and -i"TBS Pro Series Wave In 1" (the name of my wave input
device).

	Csound does not complain about -iadc and -idevaudio, but I
don't get any sound coming in. The real-time Wave output works just
fine.

	My system is a P200MMX running the 'a' revision of Win95. I am using
the beta 4 pinnacle drivers, and have experienced no other recording
problems.

Thanks for any help,
Lorien Dunn
