Subjectnumber of analysis bins in pvanal files
How can I establish the numer of analysis bins kin a phase vocoder analysis
file? This would be really helpful in accurately working with pvread, pvadd
and so on.

The number of bins is half the windowsize of the analysis. I will be
posting, eventually a little application that reads pvoc file headers
(tells how many bins), and also let's one look at the data, bin-by-bin and
frame-by-frame.

Try using pv_export to interrogate the PV file.  Rather overkill but....

INDEED, aside from the sound design issues, the score origination is very
problematic.  I've recently been looking at Common Music a bit, it looks as
if it will be useful.  Another thing I've found recently too, is Cmask by
Andre Bartetzki, it generates immeidately usable csound sco files.  The
package comes with very interesting example files, it's easy to get it up
and running and experimenting with, it will generate many score events
quickly, according to various algorhytmic things, etc etc.  Mainly, I've
just been playing with the examples a couple of days, but the documentation
is very good.  . . find stuff about it, and it itself at (from one of the
docs pages I have):

"CMask runs currently only on Macs, PowerMacs, SGI IRIX 5.3. and WIN95
Program, manual and examples are available at:
download page
ftp://ftp.kgw.tu-berlin.de/pub/cmask/

For further information about CMask and other utilities as well as computer
music activities in Berlin check out my website.

i just put the binaries and sources up on the bath/incoming site
and mills site.  

transport/perf is more responsive yet RT sound might be even more
flakey.  most likely this week i will release a file playback
app that might be nice to use as "post processor" instead...
=======================================
june21.99
	Csound for Power Macintosh
=======================================
This Version: 
	fFitch code base	3.55

=======================================
changes from 3.54/FrontEnd 1.1.4
=======================================
Perf:
- Upgraded source to 3.55
- Fixed "overwriting" printing errors 
 	in the output window.
- Removed some unneeded and conflicting 
    error messages
- transport is more responsive
- some fiddling with RT sound....

Note: this version requires an additional file
  "csound.txt" to be inside your "perf" directory
  or one of the sound/analysis directories.

Front End:
- bug fix by Steven Beck opening MIDI files
- automatic MIDI file selection when open orc.

Is there an archive of the list somewhere with, say one file per year,
or at least one per month?

I did find some archive (I think on bath?), but it is spread across
literally more than one hundred tiny files. Looks like one per week or
someething like that!

Hi, I just downloaded the latest sources from the bath site, and can't
seem to find the code that sets real-time priority and locks memory.

Is this an oversight, or is it intentionally left out? I notice that the
code is there (well, still no memlock), in the unoficial Linux version. 
However, I had problems building that version (running csound results in
"error loading dynamic libraries, xfilename not found"). 

Since the build process seems much simpler for the official version, and
since I can't see the reason for a seperate distribution of essentially
the same program, I guess I'll locally modify my code to add the
set_scheduler call. But it would be helpfull for me to know if there was
a reason not to include it (it *is* absoutely needed on Linux for
real-time work, at least on my machine).

I do not have access to the sources of the other Linux version; the
files on the Bath server are the files I use for all builds.  I
incorporate operating system specific code as I can, but if I am not
given it it does not get incorporated.  Actually the Linux system is
the main one I use, together with SGI.

In trying to understand techno, people make the mistake of evaluating
it using the one dimensional musical comprehension of other traditions. T=
hey=20
fail to see beyond the complexity or lack thereof in the beat. The best w=
ay=20
to understand techno is to think of it as being like a sonic version of a=
=20
visual stereogram.

When you first look at it, its just a whole lot of repeating colours.
Not much to it really, but if you look long enough, or know how to look, =
and=20
the composer knows what they are doing, you see straight through into a n=
ew=20
space.

Plus its good for 140bpm double time dancing if you like that kind of thi=
ng.

Hi all,

The manual is a little vague in regards to the employment of specptrk.

wsig is a pvoc file type correct? But how does specptrk need it prepared for 
input?

This is the example the manual offers:

koct specptrk   wsig

This is the usage the manual offers:

koct   specptrk  wsig, inptls, irolloff, iodd[, interp, ifprd, iwtflg]

Here is an example of the orc file Ive been playing with. Any remedies 
greatly appreciated. Ive been wanting to do this for months on and off:

sr          =     44100
kr          =     25
ksmps       =     1764
nchnls 	    = 	  1

instr 1
	ktime   line    0, p3, p3
        ; pvbufread ktime, "infile.pv"
	koct   	specptrk wsig , 1, 1, 0
	kdump cpsoct(koct), "outfile" , 8, 0
endin

How exactly does one import and input file type wsig!!!!!

Cheers

	Ah, sorry, woops, I should've checked the Csound documentation BEFORE
emailing the list.  The maximum ftable size isn't 16384, it's 16777216,
about 1,000 times the size of what I said it was.  Sorry.  My previous post

SubjectCsound suggestion
	Would it be possible to add a feature to Csound that gave percent-done
message for each note created?  That would be such a wonderful little bonus
feature.  I tend to create very computationally complex instruments that
often take hours to be written into a sound file & it would be so helpful
sometimes to have some clue as to how long a particular note will be going
for.

there is the heartbeat thing..

dave madole got about 1/2 through implementing both progress (% done)
and profiling (score time per render time) - if someone (me?) could finish
that...
