Aha,
Hi,
That's very clever! I will give it a try, I am more familiar with csh command-line so I will spend some-time understanding your command. I get the general idea though :-)
Thanks

I came up with this solution using a short bash command-line script and a specially prepared .csd file.
bash:
for i in `ls *.aif | sed 's/.aif//'` ; do cat batchfx.csd | sed "s/FILENAME/$i.aif/" > $i.batch.csd ; csound -d -A -o$i.batch.aif $i.batch.csd ; rm *.batch.csd ; done
batchfx.csd:
<CsoundSynthesizer>
<CsInstruments>
sr = 44100
kr = 4410
ksmps = 10
nchnls = 2
# define theFile #FILENAME#
# define ReverbTime # 2 #
# define Amp # 0.5 #
instr 1
ilength filelen "$theFile"
event_i "i", 2, 0, ilength + $ReverbTime
endin
instr 2
asig1, asig2 diskin "$theFile", 1
asig1 reverb asig1, $ReverbTime
asig2 reverb asig2, $ReverbTime
outs asig1 * $Amp, asig2 * $Amp
endin
</CsInstruments>
<CsScore>
i1 0 1
</CsScore>

Not the most elegant solution in the world. However, it's possible to write a flexible shell script using this method. I've only tested this in OS X, though it might work in linux and in windows using cygwin.
*** Warning: Use at your own risk ***
It's easy to accidently destroy important files with commands like "rm *.csd" if you aren't careful.
Best,
Jake

Hello,
I was wondering if there is any way to batch process several audio-files with the same csound code? I have been studying the manual all day and cannot think of a way to do this. Would it for instance be possible to add an extra argument to the standard csound terminal command that will replace a particular variable defined in the score or orchestra (i.e. a file name)?
Many Thanks
