Cecilia version 2.0.5
http://cecilia.sourceforge.net
Cecilia is a Graphic User Interface for the sound synthesis program csound.
Cecilia is written in Tcl/Tk and is released under the terms of the GNU
General Public Licence. It runs on Linux, IRIX, Mac OS X/Darwin, Mac OS,
and Windows. The Windows port is currently separately maintained by Bill
Beck at RE4M at UC Davis (http://music.ucdavis.edu/re4m/cecilia/), but we are
hoping to merge the two codebases.
It would be a trivial port to any Unix that runs Tcl/Tk, let us know if
there is an interest.
REQUIREMENTS :
--------------
- Tcl/Tk
- csound ver > 3.47
- play, sox, or a soundfile player
INSTALL :
---------
This is for UNIX only. For Windows or MacOS 8/9, download the binary
package from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=41431
First install:
- Tcl/Tk: http://tcl.sourceforge.net or http://www.tcl.tk
- csound: http://www.csounds.com
- sox (optional): http://sox.sourceforge.net/
Tcl/Tk is interpreted, you don't need to compile anything, just be superuser
and type:
tar xzf cecilia-2.0.5.tar.gz
cd cecilia-2.0.5
make install
This will install the appropriate files in /usr/local/lib/cecilia and
executables in /usr/local/bin
UNINSTALL:
----------
make uninstall
CONFIGURE :
-----------
To use Cecilia, type cecilia at the command prompt. When using Cecilia for
the first time, the path to csound and helper applications need to be
configured in File -> Preferences.
If you have several versions of csound installed on your machine, select
the release of csound you want to use in the Csound Binary configuration.
If you are using the play command to playback soundfiles, play will get
confused by the names that Cecilia gives to the soundfiles. A solution is
to de-activate the Csound:Auto(re)Name option.
CSOUND VERSION :
----------------
Cecilia version 2.0.3 was released with the manual/syntax for csound version
3.47. Cecilia 2.0.5 has not yet been updated to the new opcodes. It will
nevertheless work perfectly with new csound versions. New opcodes will
simply not be highlighted in the editor.
KNOWN BUGS / LIMITATIONS :
--------------------------
- Amplitude information is not displayed with csound ver>4.16
- Auto Rename generates soundfiles with an extension incompatible
with play and sox.
- Documentation needs to be updated to csound ver 4.21. With a new
script to generate the reference database from the HTML.
Makefile.old is the old Makefile to make a binary. It requires two
programs: tcl2c and tclcruncher, which should be available for Linux.
The modules included in the "built-in" directory may not work with
current (post 3.57) Csound builds because of opcode obsolescence.
