Cool. Maybe you can let me know if you get anything to run longer than 1 hour. I always get system freezes at exactly 3600 seconds.
Hi. The SoundBlaster clock runs at about 1193 kHz. that's 2**32 ticks/hour. Maybe it's an overflow bug?
Yes it might be...I was using what I thought was an always-on instrument (duration of -1), but I think this just holds the note until something overflows. I fixed it by changing the duration of the dummy note from -1 to a huge number less than 2^31 - 1, since apparently a csound score can't last more than that many beats since it's counting with a 32-bit signed number. That gives about 68 years... Maybe also changing the tempo could give longer times since the beats default to 1 second but could be longer.
