Hi,
I have some Problems with the Sound under Digital Unix
Here a example:
I create a sound object (s1)first:
s1 = Play[Sin[880 Pi t], {t, 0, 10}];
Play and "Friends" do'nt work on my Unix OS (Why ???)
so I'm going to export the sound object into a file:
Export["/myhome/tmp/mysound.wav", Show[s1], "WAV"]
and play it with the decsound command line executable:
! "/usr/bin/mme/decsound -play /myhome/tmp/mysound.wav"
Ok it works - I can here the sound (-:
Now I created a module:
MySound[sound_] := Module[{},
Export["/myhome/tmp/mysound.wav", Show[sound], "WAV"];
! "/usr/bin/mme/decsound -play /myhome/andre/tmp/mysound.wav"
]
MySound[s1]
where the two lines are taken from above, but it doesn't work.
And I can't see the reason, so please help me.
I am also intrested in the reason, why I had to make all these
thinks for listening a simple Sound.
PS I tested some "work arounds" with sound.m from the mathematica FAQ's
but it doesn't work.
MFG
Andre
