What would be nice for me if there was an export feature for the source
waveforms it produces (the ones that are made by constructing a spectrum
with a bandwidth for each of the harmnonics). Then I could use them in
PD or Csound or ??? .
Anyone else here have this thought (or alternatives)?

I have heard several comments to this effect, and also that the code
in Zyn is 'a nightmare' however I have not heard anything specific that
one can really get a handle on.
While I agree the GUI is poor and could do with quite a lot of work, I
don't know about the rest, although there are changes I would like in
the way voice banks are managed.
This all causes me quite a lot of concern. I find that Zyn gives
unparallelled results, and conceptually most closely matches my grasp
of sound. I am concerned about talk of unspecified jack problems, and
also the lack of any visible development by the originator.
I, personally, would be willing to expend a great deal of effort to
help revive Zyn, and would be quite happy to put my hand in my
pocket as well.
Wish there were a way to approach all the
talented hackers who are unfortunately wasting their time working on trying to crack it,
and instead get them a copy of the Zyn source, to revamp it from scratch and make it
RT-safe.
Zyn isn't RT safe? Could you elaborate or point to a link? I remember
reading something about this, and was hoping to use it for live
performance.
