Composers Desktop Project Forum

Dear colleagues

I've started finally a full professorship position at the Conservatory of Piacenza, in Italy, teaching electroacoustic and audiovisual composition. Of course I introduced CDP/Soundshaper to my first year course and it's always astonishing to see the great response young people have when they face a non-standard DAW/Plugin centric tool.
I'm running WINE wrapped versions of Soundshaper because they all have Macs and everything goes fine beside two things:

1) when you use the useful "preview" function then the chosen file don't get rendered and is missing
Here is the error message:

C:\windows\system32>copy C:\CDPR8\Temp\~X_5.* C:\CDPR8\Temp\~A_4.*
Invalid name.

)

2) when I reload the whole patch, the source vile A~0 for example, is always missing.

Hello, thanks for keeping the community alive.
I'm teaching CDP as part of my Electroacoustic Composition course in Mantova Conservatory (Italy). Actually Soundshaper works very fine on WINESKIN port for MAC but I have problem with a student with a Windows PC.
After installation, which goes without any problem, running any Soundshaper command brings out a glitched interface with many incoherent sliders with strange parameter names (DLbl1, etc.) and the error "SCROLLBAR PROPERTY OUT OF RANGE".
Also on subsequent re-opening of Soundshaper I get "-----SOUNDSHAPER SETUP PROBLEM...." with missing folders like when CDPR folder is unaccessible (but I swear, it's there, unmoved)
