To: Ultrasound Daily Digest Hi all, I'm new to the list and did check the FAQ about this. Is anyone working on a Unix driver for the GUS?? thanks -- David Vrona N9QNZ +1 708 680 2829 (voice) Hollister Incorporated +1 708 680 2123 (fax) 2000 Hollister Drive Internet: dave@hp1.holl.com Libertyville, IL 60048-3781 UUCP: {well connected}!ddsw1!hp1!dave Opinions expressed are my own and not those of Hollister Incorporated. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 17 Feb 1993 19:35:48 -0500 From: "Anthony Green" Message-Id: <2b82d9e7.roboco@roboco.UUCP> Subject: Need testers for port of Csound. To: Ultrasound Daily Digest I have ported an audio processing system, called Csound, to OS/2 and DOS from unix/NeXT. I need a small group of people to try it out for some time before I have it uploaded to an ftp site. Csound is a sophisticated audio compiler that supports many kinds of synthesis techniques. Instruments are described in an "orchestra" file, and events in a "score" file. Csound generates a single wavetable suitable for playing on your GUS with playfile. Csound can also read standard midi files and render the entire composition as one wavetable. What you need: Some familiarity with sound synthesis and digital signal processing. A 386 or better - and preferably a math co-processor. (Actually - a 387 is *necessary* for it to work under DOS - but not for OS/2) Lots of disk space Time (it's complicated - but has a 190 page manual). Please contact me via email. Thanks - and happy GUSsing! -- Anthony T.

They're just appearing in England. Firstly... Does anyone know if the free Midisoft thing applies to the UK, and if so, when it will be available here? No-one here has heard of it as far as I can tell. Secondly... My prime use of the GUS will be for composing. It is essential that I can print out the compostions in standard notation. Are there any packages that will print staves from a midi file (shareware preferred, dos/windows not fussy).
