Bug #822

Set Wave gets a type mismatch error
Added by Brian Flanagan about 3 years ago.
Updated almost 3 years ago.
Description
The problem exists in both manifests.
For example: (from top of page 08.06.06 of AMOS Pro manual)
S$=""
For W=-128 To 127
X=W : If X < 0 Then Add X,256
S$=S$+Chr$(X)
Next W
Set Wave 2,S$
Wave 2 To 15 : For S=10 TO 60 : Play S,10 : Next S
Also, same error in example at bottom of page 08.01.06 of AMOS Pro manual: (renamed Shape$ to Shpe$ just to be safe.
Shpe$="" : Degree
For S=0 To 255
V=Int((Sin(S)/2+Sin(S*2+45)/4)*128)+127
Shpe$ = Shpe$ + Chr$(V)
Next S
Set Wave 2,Shpe$
Wave 2 To 15
For N=10 TO 60 : Play N,10 : Next N
The same error is generated for both examples.
- Status changed from New to Feedback
Not new: Set Wave never worked. It will with the new sound engine, nmearly complete.
Re-tested in newest version as of 21 Oct 2021.
Set Wave still fails entirely in Amiga mode.
In AOZ mode, the command runs without errors, but the waveform used does not change.
Hope you get it finished soon. ;-)
Updated example:
