Re: How to remove echo from recording?

Mac computers can't normally do that, so you'll need to give details of how you are doing (or trying to do) it.

Re: Generate starts its own track.

The 60,000 $ question is if such a pipe could be implemented within XLISP. After a lot of faffing and countless crashing - yes it is possible to use mod-script-pipe from within Nyquist, but you need an external script running to receive the returned messages. Then commands can be sent by using some...
