Just add the low-delay trick to the diskin opcode. The trick is

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?
PD is an amazing tool. It has lots of extensions (www.pure-data.org)
Hello. Does the linuxsampler.sourceforge.net really
work
as a full-blown sampler? What else I need for using it?
As far as I'm concerned this project is at the stage of libraries
like libakai. Once there are enough libraries, there will be some
binary code to use them. Currently Steve is busy with the masterng
tool.
But yiou can check out Swami (swami.sourceforge.net). You can use it
as sampler.
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. 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.
If you are looking for examples that are licensed under Free Art
license or so, there won't be many, I'm afraid. But there are really
cool non-licensed examples like "singing monk" (it's a composition
with a synthesised singing male voice). I can ask one of my
friends (who is fan of Csound) for a link for you.
