Reading thru the docs on seewave, or maybe sound, (which seewave likes to use), I noticed that they hadn't set up a WAV player for OSX. After not having any luck with calls like > setWavePlayer(quicktime\ player) , I found a nice little tool, freeware: http://www.hieper.nl/html/play.html After installing that, >setWavePlayer('/applications/play') worked perfectly. Just thought someone might want to know ^_^ Carl

Actually R can play (and record) audio on OS X directly without any tools - see the audio package ;). Cheers, S

Great timing simon! A search on <http://www.rseek.org> indicates that package "signals" might be very helpful - most audio generated needs to be windowed, and signals has that as well as a set of nice filtering tools. <http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/signal/signal.pdf> Expected date for R to replace matlab, Mplus, SPSS, SAS, E-prime, and LabVIEW = 2015 :-) Just need to get each of the universities and companies that save $5000/seat*300,000 seats to chip that into R development. tim
The University of Edinburgh is a charitable body, registered in Scotland, with registration number SC005336.
Hmmm... yep, audio (package) looks nice. This leads to a question of tool name collisions -- there's play() here and in seewave. I'll post my query about that in the r-help list.

[Please CC me, I'm not subscripted to R-help,] but that's why I have defined as a generic so anyone can use it and define methods for it ... Cheers, S

Since there was some confusion, that "audio" package supports all platforms (Windows, unix, ..), not just OS X. I was just pointing out OS X since this is SIG-Mac (and not SIG-Windows ;;). Cheers, S
