NAME
Cecilia - A GUI and programming environment for Csound
SYNOPSIS
cecilia [OPTIONS]
DESCRIPTION
Cecilia is a graphic interface for music composition and signal
processing that uses Csound as its audio processing engine. Cecilia is
a completely programmable sound processing tool with realtime
interactive processing of soundfiles or live input. It can also be
regarded a software synthesizer with configurable controls.
Cecilia includes the Cybil language for the production of complex
Csound scores.
Cecilia provides a completely programmable GUI written in Tcl/Tk.
Parameter controls may be designed for interactive input and for
dynamic graphing. The program can also be used as a Csound friendly
text editor for the creation of Csound instruments and scores.
OPTIONS
No runtime options are available for this program. cecilia -h will
return the options specific to Tcl/Tk.
FILES
Examples and complete HTML documentation can be found in the
$CECILIA_HOME/files directory.
BUGS
Report all bugs to the Cecilia mail list at
http://cecilia.sourceforge.net.
>From the TODO list for Cecilia 2.0.5 :
Amplitude information is not displayed with Csound versions later than
4.16.
Auto Rename generates soundfiles with an extension incompatible with
the play and SoX programs.
The Pvoc Reader window comes up very squashed, needs reasonable default
size.
TODO
>From the TODO list for Cecilia 2.0.5 :
- Create complete package for MacOS X
- Merge Windows sources from Bill Beck into CVS
- Use Tcl compiler to create binaries
- Documentation needs to be updated to recent versions of Csound with a
new script to generate the reference database from the HTML.
