[net.micro.mac] Help needed programming 4-voice synth with Sumacc version 2

sahayman@watcgl.UUCP (Steve Hayman) (07/09/85)

I need some help programming the 4-voice synthesizer using SuMacC version 2.
From what I've read, I get the impression that the following code fragment
should work:

FTSoundRec soundRec;
FTSynthRec synthRec = {ftMode, &soundRec};

...initialize soundRec, then

StartSound( (Ptr) &synthRec, sizeof synthRec, (ProcPtr)-1 );


However, this results in a program that just sits there forever and ever,
producing no sound at all.
Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?  Actual source code
fragments would be most useful.  Just show me how to play 1 4-note
chord.

Please mail responses to me and I will summarize to the net if there is
enough interest.

Thanks...
