LoadInstrument

LoadInstrument

Loads a DSP instrument file.

Synopsis

LoadInstrument <symbol> <file name>[<triggerable (1/0)>]

Argument

<symbol>
New symbol in the instrument name space to give this instrument.
<file name>
File name of a DSP instrument to load.
<triggerable>
Optional switch to determine whether or not the instrument should respond to release and be restartable (i.e. instrument is affected by the A and B buttons).
When set to 1 (default), instrument responds to being started and released with the A and B buttons.
When set to 0, instrument is started when patch is first started (A or B button), but is not released or restarted by subsequent presses of the A or B buttons. This is useful for leaving some instruments running after the rest of the patch has been released (e.g. a delay line).

Examples

The following example shows a patch file that uses LoadInstrument.

LoadInstrument osc1 sawtooth.dsp                                        ; load sawtooth oscillator and 
                                        ; call it osc1 (for later 
                                        ; connections and knob        

                                    ; tweaking).
