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@xxxxxxxxxx> > >As for writing a sampler in csound: [ ... ] and it can use the diskin >opcode to play sounds directly from disk.

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. Juhana
