Supercollider code to do what they want. The
programs they do
use, like Live, Fruityloops and Cakewalk, are
still way beyond
any compositional tools we have available to us
under Linux,
with all apologies to the Pd, SSM and Rosegarden
guys.
Most of the composers I know just use pencil and
paper. Usually it is
staff paper.

and, from 90´ till now, electronic concert music
composers are growing fast in number and more and more
active. Just some of them that are well known: Michel
Chion, François Belle, Unsuk Chin (recent one, I
havent listened to it yet) etc.
At the link above you can find samples of this.
We generally work with instrumental and electronic
music, and we do not always use note or a staff paper.
