<h2>Performance</h2>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>size</em></span> -- number of points in the table. Ordinarily a power of 2 or a power-of-2 plus 1 (see <a class="link" href="f.html" title="f Statement (or Function Table Statement)"><em class="citetitle">f statement</em></a>); the maximum tablesize is 16777216 (2<sup>24</sup>) points. The allocation of table memory can be <span class="emphasis"><em>deferred</em></span> by setting this parameter to 0; the size allocated is then the number of points in the file (probably not a power-of-2), and the table is not usable by normal oscillators, but it is usable by a <a class="link" href="loscil.html" title="loscil"><em class="citetitle">loscil</em></a> unit. The soundfile can also be mono or stereo.
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>filcod</em></span> -- integer or character-string denoting the source soundfile name. An integer denotes the file <span class="emphasis"><em>soundin</em></span>.<span class="emphasis"><em>filcod</em></span> ; a character-string (in double quotes, spaces permitted) gives the filename itself, optionally a full pathname. If not a full path, the file is sought first in the current directory, then in that given by the environment variable <a class="link" href="CommandEnvironment.html" title="Csound Environment Variables"><em class="citetitle">SSDIR</em></a> (if defined) then by <a class="link" href="CommandEnvironment.html" title="Csound Environment Variables"><em class="citetitle">SFDIR</em></a>. See also <a class="link" href="soundin.html" title="soundin"><em class="citetitle">soundin</em></a>.
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>skiptime</em></span> -- begin reading at <span class="emphasis"><em>skiptime</em></span> seconds into the file.
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>channel</em></span> -- channel number to read in. 0 denotes read all channels.
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>format</em></span> -- specifies the audio data-file format:
</p>
<div class="literallayout">
<p><br />
1 - 8-bit signed character 4 - 16-bit short integers <br />

If <span class="emphasis"><em>format</em></span> = 0 the sample format is taken from the soundfile header, or by default from the CSound <a class="link" href="CommandFlags.html#FlagsMinusLowerO"><em class="citetitle">-o</em></a> command-line flag.
