## foutk

foutk — Outputs k-rate signals of an arbitrary number of channels to a specified file, in raw (headerless) format.

## Description

foutk outputs N k-rate signals to a specified file of N channels.

## Syntax

    foutk ifilename, iformat, kout1 [, kout2, kout3,....,koutN]

## Initialization

ifilename -- the output file's name (in double-quotes).

iformat -- a flag to choose output file format (note: Csound versions older than 5.0 may only support formats 0 and 1):

- 0 - 32-bit floating point samples without header (binary PCM multichannel file)

- 1 - 16-bit integers without header (binary PCM multichannel file)

- 2 - 16-bit integers without header (binary PCM multichannel file)

- 3 - u-law samples without header

- 4 - 16-bit integers without header

- 5 - 32-bit integers without header

- 6 - 32-bit floats without header

- 7 - 8-bit unsigned integers without header

- 8 - 24-bit integers without header

- 9 - 64-bit floats without header

## Performance

kout1,...koutN -- control-rate signals to be written to the file. The expected range of the signals is determined by the selected sample format.

foutk operates in the same way as fout, but with k-rate signals. iformat can be set only in the range 0 to 9, or 0 to 1 with an old version of Csound.

Notice that fout and foutk can use either a string containing a file pathname, or a handle-number generated by fiopen. Whereas, with fouti and foutir, the target file can be only specified by means of a handle-number.
