No, you have to run it with a command-line option and then use aconnect I suppose. I need to check how to do soft connections, as I am used to just connecting straight to hardware . Victor - Original Message - From: "Bert Freudenberg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "OLPC Development" Cc: "J

Re: CSound server questions

Well, you can ask me. I suppose there are various ways you could connect to Csound: 1. using the API (via a C or C++ squeak plugin module, if it is possible to do these things), 2. through MIDI (if squeak can output MIDI and we can then connect via alsa midi) 3. OSC 4. IP socket (by starting a min

Csound supports OSC, but I have to check whether we are including it

Csound supports OSC, but I have to check whether we are including it on olpcsound. The reason we might have left it out is that I have heard through the grapevine that OSC was a no-no as it breaks the security model. So I suppose I should ask directly, is OSC permitted? Victor - Original Me
