I am trying to write an XCMD which uses the note synthesizer. When I try to run it, it seems to open a channel with no problems but the noteCmd does not produce any sound (or any error code.) I then tried running Farallon's SoundEdit(TM), opening a new sound window, closing it, and switching back to HyperCard. Voila! My XCMD now works perfectly. But HyperCard now refuses to play sounds. No error, but no sound. I switch back to SoundEdit, open another sound window and close it, and then HyperCard will play sounds. But after it plays a sound, my noteSynth XCMD stops working. It seems that SoundEdit is resetting something, so that either the sampled synth or the note synth will work from HyperCard after that, but whichever is called first installs itself and will not be ejected. Is HyperCard doing something nasty to the sound manager? I notice that it has its own ID 5 synthesizer (sampled synth.) If anyone knows what SoundEdit is doing that frees the manager up, that would do the trick... -- Michael McClennen (mjm@dartmouth.edu)

Hear, hear! I almost thought it was me going crazy... I've tried to write an XCMD which uses the sampledSynth. It is pretty simple and straightforward and works perfectly ON SEs AND PLUSSES ONLY! Almost drove me crazy because I need to use it on the Mac II I have where I work. If someone knows what's going on I would love to know. +-------------------------+--------------------------------+------------------+ | Sven Axelsson | d83_sven_a@tekno.chalmers.se | DISCLAIMER: | | dep:t of Linguistics | (^^ best ^^) | | | univ. of Gothenburg | dlv_sa@hum.gu.se | This is not | | SWEDEN | usdsa@seguc21.bitnet | a disclaimer. | +-------------------------+--------------------------------+------------------+
