Hello. Does the linuxsampler.sourceforge.net really work
as a full-blown sampler? What else I need for using it?
From: Paul Winkler <pw_lists(a)slinkp.com>
As for writing a sampler in csound: [ ... ] and it can use the diskin
opcode to play sounds directly from disk. However, the latter isn't very
responsive in realtime IIRC, so for good playback you need to use
the in-memory approach, which means you're limited by your physical RAM.
Just add the low-delay trick to the diskin opcode. The trick is
dated at least down in 1995 (patent is 1997).
By the way, what Csound I should use? Unofficial linux Csound does not
work with Hankelson's instruments, and official Csound has no ./configure
for easy install. Is PD or similar better supported? Has anyone
orc-to-pd converter so that I may use Hankelson's instruments
in PD?
I must repeat what others have said: we need good examples and demos.
I tried to check good Csound demos but no such thing available.
Examples were from dull to the worst kind of monotonous tones.
