Gee, this is strange, [EventList randomExample: 20] works AOK for me, and I believe the code in the + method should be that way. The + method is shared from MusicMagnitude, and the last line of the method is only triggered if you send an operand that's not of the same species (e.g., 20 Hz + 3 dB). I believe this *should* generate an error. Can you send me the stack you get, because there's obviously something missing from the file-in parcel... PS: I updated the CSL support files archive with MacIntel and MacG4 binaries. I have some friends helping with Windows and Linux binaries (any takers?) See http://fastlabinc.com/CSL/CSL_Libs.tgz There are also new files and doc on the Siren web site http://fastlabinc.com/Siren I'll update the parcel in Store and the ZIP file later today. stp -- Stephen Travis Pope -- Santa Barbara, California, USA http://HeavenEverywhere.com http://FASTLabInc.com On May 3, 2007, at 9:59 PM, Stefano Franchi wrote: > Hi all, > > now that Cincom has finally released 7.5, I immediately set on > installing Siren (Stephen's earlier suggestion to download the beta > version did not work for me, unfortunately). > However, I am stuck at the very beginning.

Hi Stephen,
you're right, there must be something missing from the file-in, or I messed up the installation procedure somehow. Unfortunately I can't quite figure out what's wrong. I appended the stack below, hopefully it will help. And thanks for the G4 binaries, I will move on to them as soon as I get the basic Siren package working. Cheers, Stefano __________________________________________________ Stefano Franchi Department of Philosophy Ph: (64) 9 373-7599 x83940 University Of Auckland Fax: (64) 9 373-8768 Private Bag 92019 [hidden email] Auckland New Zealand _______________________________________________ SqueakAudio mailing list [hidden email] http://www.create.ucsb.edu/mailman/listinfo/squeakaudio |

Gee, This stack looks impossible. You're right, though, that putting the extra "value" message at the end of the method Siren.MusicMagnitude>>+ will fix it. There's a new beta release -- a parcel in the Store DB and a ZIP file at http://FASTLabInc.com/Siren. I also added loads of new doc and examples. stp -- Stephen Travis Pope -- Santa Barbara, California, USA http://HeavenEverywhere.com http://FASTLabInc.com On May 6, 2007, at 4:04 PM, Stefano Franchi wrote: > Hi Stephen, > > you're right, there must be something missing from the file-in, or > I messed up the installation procedure somehow.

Please let me know if this is still happenning; From the message you sent, it makes no sense to me. It looks like the code is saying SecondDuration + MSecDuration which should be handled earlier in that method (since the receiver and the argument are the same species), meaning it should not be falling through to the bottom of the method. What's the other walk-back you got? stp -- Stephen Travis Pope -- Santa Barbara, California, USA http://HeavenEverywhere.com http://FASTLabInc.com On May 3, 2007, at 9:59 PM, Stefano Franchi wrote: > Hi all, > > now that Cincom has finally released 7.5, I immediately set on > installing Siren (Stephen's earlier suggestion to download the beta > version did not work for me, unfortunately). > However, I am stuck at the very beginning.
