hello,

nice thread -

iam interested in two things:
the soundquality/ resolution and
stabillity at cpu expensive applications of these three programminglanguages.

do they differ?

thanks,
jo

It's great to see pyo make an appearance in this discussion. For
completion's sake, here's the "128 sine waves with random freq mixed down to stereo" example written in pyo. I find it much more readable than either
SC or cSound, but that's only a matter of taste i guess.

Sine([random.uniform(20,20000) for i in range(128)]).mix(2)

indeed, pyo looks really cool, kudos ;)

a couple of remarks with your example though.
my sc example description was not 100% accurate:
the random freqs have exponential distribution (ExpRand) and Splay does the stereo mix down but with a level compensation (equal power) so you don't blow up your ears/pa like in the above pyo example :p

also, running this pyo line uses 25% of my Core Duo 1.83 while sc example uses 15% (and I'm not running excellent Tim Blechmann's multicore-aware sound server supernova, just default scsynth)

BTW, (getting a bit OT here) I have some questions about pyo.
is there a way to use double precision ?

$ >>> from pyo import *
$ pyo version 0.5.0 (uses single precision)

for the Server to boot properly, I have to start jackd, then Server().boot() gives me an Error with PortAudio incorrect channels number (???), stop jackd, and then Server boots fine.. it seems also that it segfaults easily.. no time right now but I'll make more tests some time...

cheers,
_y
