I noticed that too, I think it's a legacy thing.
Many of the fully operational CDP prgs have not had their headers updated as they are not new versions.
 I'll flag that up anyway.

Ok, good to know!

Quote from: simonk on February 02, 2025, 12:30:45 PMMaybe you could try some other sound files with differing formats.

I am trying with mono files, wav format, both in 48000 sr - 24 bit and 44.100 sr - 16 bit. nothing works.
I have also asked now in the SC forum, hopefully someone can help.

Will post here whenever I will have solved it, thank you anyways


 

Ah and all the soundfile names that I have been trying do not have any spaces and they are the same I was using with CDP7 on my Mac Intel.
Thanks,
Giulia

Hi Simon,
I typed sndinfo in the Terminal and this is what I got:

CDP Release 7.1 2016
USAGE: sndreport NAME (mode) infile(s) (outfile) (parameters)

where NAME can be any one of

props     len        lens      sumlen      timediff
smptime   timesmp    maxsamp   maxsamp2    loudchan    findhole
diff      chandiff   prntsnd   units       maxi        zcross

Type 'sndreport timediff'  for more info on info timediff option... ETC.

But I am confused because I am installing CDP 8. 
What does it mean ?

Thanks for your assistance.

Hi Simon,
thanks for you reply. Yes when I installed it I typed the command prompt xattr - rc cdpr8 in the Terminal, with the correct spaces. I did it also now but nothing happens. Does it mean that there is some problem with the installation process and cdp isn't correctly installed ? It's weird because I carefully followed the instructions. Could it depend from my Mac Silicon processor (mac M2) ?

Hello, I am using the CDP command-line functions in SuperCollider. I am used to work with that since few years on my previous Mac Intel, but now I just installed it on my new MacOS (cdp8). Soundloom seems to work correctly and also the command line functions are recognised when I evaluate them in SuperCollider. However, whatever sound file I try to process, it gives me an error saying: INVALID DATA, "Can't open file/...". Even though I am using sound files that were perfectly working with cdp7 (wav mono files, 48000 sample rate, 24bit).
Could this be related to the installing process ? Or any other ideas ?
Thank you.
Giulia
