Only old versions of Faust will work

[mxa]

For unknown reasons with an updated version of Faust you will get the error physicalmodeling.lib : 67 : ERROR : syntax error, unexpected ENABLE, expecting RBRAQ or IDENT when exporting from Synth-A-Modeler to a puredata binary. Maybe @agraef or @eberdahl know more about this.

We made some pretty significant modifications to the way the Faust libraries work about 2 years ago and it possible that this broke something in physicalmodeling.lib. Do you have a link to this file so that I can quickly check its content?

@rmichon yes, it's here: https://github.com/eberdahl/SaM/blob/8b66ec5311434e7e88c66ec161ae16cd04eb684e/physicalmodeling.lib

Yes, try to replace:

import("music.lib");
import("effect.lib");

with:

import("all.lib");

music.lib and effect.lib were deprecated a while ago and should not work anymore with the latest version of Faust. all.lib is a quick convenient to solve this type of issue. Let me know if that helped...

@rmichon I replaced those lines, updated to Faust version 2.5.21

when trying to make a binary From SaM I still get this error:

Solved with this change:

I see... enable is now a primitive of the language (which has nothing to do with the enable declared in physicalmodeling.lib). Ha I see you just figured this out haha!
