Re: [microsound] OT: making 5.1 surround mixes

[Daniel Andrés Prieto García <d-prieto@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It can be very easy to do using cSound. It's free bur not so easy to 
use.

you musy create two files, an 'orchestra' and a 'score'.

then you must render it.

the filenames must be in the same folder that contains the two files, 
that must have the following content:

/*********BEGINNNING: 6CH.ORC**********/

sr	= 44100 ; the sample rate
kr	= 4410 ; the control rate
ksmps = 10 ; sample rate / control rate
nchnls = 6 ; number of channnels

; table for the file #1
gi1 ftgen 1, file1.wav, /* size in samples, must be a power of two */ 
256, 0, 0, 6 /* this one is the file format */
; table for the file #2
gi1 ftgen 1, file2.wav, /* size in samples, must be a power of two */ 
256, 0, 0, 6 /* this one is the file format */
; table for the file #3
gi1 ftgen 1, file3.wav, /* size in samples, must be a power of two */ 
256, 0, 0, 6 /* this one is the file format */
; table for the file #4
gi1 ftgen 1, file4.wav, /* size in samples, must be a power of two */ 
256, 0, 0, 6 /* this one is the file format */
; table for the file #5
gi1 ftgen 1, file5.wav, /* size in samples, must be a power of two */ 
256, 0, 0, 6 /* this one is the file format */
; table for the file #6
gi1 ftgen 1, file6.wav, /* size in samples, must be a power of two */ 
256, 0, 0, 6 /* this one is the file format */
