Dear all,
when I open the Bela-IDE and run the csound examples they work fine and as expected. My problem starts when I create a new csound project in the Project Explorer. The new file will not compile. The console says: "1 mode switch detected on the audio thread."

I am a beginner with Bela but have experience working with csound.
I'm on Mac OS 10.12.6 and using Bela Mini.
Thanks for any help.
Luís

    luis The console says: "1 mode switch detected on the audio thread."

    this is not a big issue by itself.

    luis The new file will not compile.

    What do you mean? Can you paste the source of the file and the error you are getting?

        Thanks for your reply.
        I create a new file in my own Project forlder, paste the same csound example that already worked before and then it doesn't work in the new file.

        Here's the console:

        Actually, when I create a new file, the option csd (for csound) is not available and the following message is on the window:

        Create new file
        Enter the new file name and extension (only files with .cpp, .c or .S extensions will be compiled).

        Maybe I'm missing something really simple...

          This all looks good, no error there. Does that make sound as expected?

          luis Create new file
          Enter the new file name and extension (only files with .cpp, .c or .S extensions will be compiled).

          Yes that message may be a bit misleading. It refers to C++ projects mostly. You can definitely create a .csd file, but remember that it has to be called _main.csd to be executed.

          • luis replied to this.

                giuliomoro That's it, the file must be saved as _main.csd. Now it works! Thanks for your reply.
