dumpk2 Signal I/O:File I/O dumpk2 dumpk2 Periodically writes two orchestra control-signal values to an external file. Description Periodically writes two orchestra control-signal values to a named external file in a specific format. Syntax dumpk2 ksig1, ksig2, ifilname, iformat, iprd Initialization ifilname -- character string (in double quotes, spaces permitted) denoting the external file name. May either be a full path name with target directory specified or a simple filename to be created within the current directory iformat -- specifies the output data format: 1 = 8-bit signed char(high order 8 bits of a 16-bit integer 4 = 16-bit short integers 5 = 32-bit long integers 6 = 32-bit floats 7 = ASCII long integers 8 = ASCII floats (2 decimal places) Note that A-law and U-law output are not available, and that all formats except the last two are binary. The output file contains no header information. iprd -- the period of ksig output in seconds, rounded to the nearest orchestra control period. A value of 0 implies one control period (the enforced minimum), which will create an output file sampled at the orchestra control rate. Performance ksig1, ksig2 -- control-rate signals. This opcode allows two generated control signal values to be saved in a named external file. The file contains no self-defining header information. But it contains a regularly sampled time series, suitable for later input or analysis. There may be any number of dumpk2 opcodes in an instrument or orchestra but each must write to a different file. Examples Here is an example of the dumpk2 opcode. It uses the file dumpk2.csd. Example of the dumpk2 opcode. See the sections Real-time Audio and Command Line Flags for more information on using command line flags. The output should include lines like these: kfreq = 429.202551, kdb = -20.495694 kfreq = 429.202551, kdb = -20.495694 kfreq = 407.275258, kdb = -23.123776 kfreq = 475.264472, kdb = -9.300846 kfreq = 569.979181, kdb = -7.315527 kfreq = 440.103457, kdb = -0.058331 kfreq = 429.202600, kdb = -20.495700 kfreq = 429.202600, kdb = -20.495700 kfreq = 407.275300, kdb = -23.123800 kfreq = 475.264500, kdb = -9.300800 kfreq = 569.979200, kdb = -7.315500 kfreq = 440.103500, kdb = -0.058300 See Also dumpk, dumpk3, dumpk4, readk, readk2, readk3, readk4 Credits By: John ffitch and Barry Vercoe 1999 or earlier
