Use OSCinit in Cabbage MacOS

Cabbage slugs

Hi,

I tried to copy and paste the OSCinit example from the Csound documentation in an effect and it is not working. I previously tried to create an effect using the same opcode and couldn’t make it work, do you know why? I tried to install csound plugins and reinstall csound with no luck. I am using the latest pro version on MacOS.

Thanks!

Hi @nymano. Try loading the osc library using --opcode-lib=, the pro build of Cabbage 2 doesn’t ship with with auxilary plugins. The pro build of Cabbage 3 does, as Csound 7 provides the option of building everything into the main Csound lib.

The error is gone, it looks like it’s working, thanks!
