CVI software controller

[MoRpH]

OK just restarting my thread for development of a Fairlight CVI rs232 software controller.... as I called for b4 I'm after recommendations of what programming language to do this in and any other resources that could help.....

And mostly experienced coders to work on it as I'm a newbie coder.

Also if anyone is keen to write it into there VJsoftware all code from this project will be open source so thats cool... :)

To start off with here is a great rs232 generic coding page http://www.cpcug.org/user/clemenzi/technical/Languages/SerialIO.htm and to get the rs232 specs for the CVI download the manual from here http://cvi.vjcentral.com/manuals/cvimanual.pdf

I?ve actually been working on this and have my Fairlight under rudimentary serial control using PD and the serial extension to PD that I?m using only seems to work under linux there is a pc Version but I cant get it to work.

Hmmmm cool yeah PD never though of using that :) but yeah it makes sense.

How about creative a UI for the software can you do that with PD??

Maybe we could discuss this @ the clan analogue meeting thursday night mate... post results back :)

yep, i would say pd(or even max or jmax) is THE "language" controlling over serial, why?: because pd has allready all that you need 2 sync, audioAnalyze/midi/msec... so i don't see any reason 2 code all new...

sadly when using win32, there's no 100% control external for using serial(YET)... but we're MORE than near that solution...

stay tuned!
