[Csnd] any lisp/scheme front-ends/hosts to csound?

The Csound Mailinglist

Hi folks, just wondering if anyone knows of any lisp/scheme front ends that use the Csound API. It’s something I’m considering trying out with s7 and wanted to check on prior work I might not have found. I’m thinking of an integrated scheme/c host, so that one can make direct csound API calls from scheme to set vars, turn on and off instruments, etc. My main interest is in seeing if this is possible in a Max/Pd object, but getting it going stand alone could be useful too.

thanks!

None that I know of. I guess it needs an FFI wrapper to be built to access the C or C++ API.

This is based on a Common Lisp CFFI interface to Csound that I have maintained for years in the Csound repository, https://www.github.com/csound/csound/tree/develop/interfaces/csound.lisp.

Yes, that’s what I was envisioning. That’s how I’ve built Scheme for Max/Pd, the s7 interpreter is completely contained in the C external, and Max to Scheme is bridged with some data marshalling and FFI functions. So it occured to me it would be potentially interesting to explore doing the same thing but with csound embedded alongside it. It’s very easy with s7 to add FFI functions both ways, and one can also turn the garbage collector on and off, so it might be possible get the GC to play fair (enough) with Csound as well.

Are there any open source Csound API projects that are particularly good examples? (i.e. not so big and complex as to be hard to go through)

thanks

Ah, great, I shall look at this! Michael, are you using the CL or s7 version of Common Music?

Common Lisp.

There’s a repo of examples in
github.com/csound that may be useful
to you.

Could OpenMusic work for your purposes ?
