Description

If a macro is defined then #ifdef can incorporate text into an orchestra upto the next #end. This is similar to, but independent of, the macro system in the score language.

Syntax

#ifdef NAME

....

#else 

....

#end 

Performance

Note that the #ifdef can be nested, like in the C preprocessor language.

Examples

Here is a simple example of the conditional.

#define debug ##
     instr 1
#ifdef debug
     print "calling oscil"
#end
     a1   oscil 32000,440,1
     out  a1
     endin
