Looks like that thesis was done at CREATE (UCSB). Interesting, thanks
for pointing that out! I know Lua a bit (heck, it even runs on my HP 50g
calculator, which is quite an amazing feat), but I didn't know about the
synthesis package.
Maybe Vessel can be married with Faust as well, like
the Q/Faust
coupling?
Faust can be made to work in any environment which provides some means
to integrate (via static or dynamic linking or whatever) basic dsp
components processing a stream of samples, and can provide some way to
exchange control variable values. So if Lua or Vessel itself provides
these tie-ins then it should be possible, but of course someone needs to
write the C++ template for it. ;-)
Cheers,
Albert
