hello,
i installed the binary distribution of grace on my xp machine.
i would like to do some realtime stuff with cm (controlling external synths and/or other software).
is this possible with grace on WinXP?


Hi, The idea is to implement RTS functionality inside Grace itself, ie use callbacks from JUCE threads into lisp, rather than from an (external) lib like librts. Ditto MIDI and OSC: these could be supported in a cross platform way by Grace (JUCE really) instead of by separate libs that may or may not work on random platforms. But Grace is still just a baby and work is slow due to the start of semester and complicated by Lisp (as usual).

to be more specific:

can i use PORTMIDI?
can i use RTS?
can i use OSC?

if yes - how?

the short answer is no, not now with the existing software: currently only clisp works on windows, it might be possible to load portmidi and/or osc but it would probably require some windows porting. rts will never work on windows. really the only hope for a cross-platform solution is to have Grace do all the IO/scheduling and lisp simply transfer algorithmic data to-from Grace
