I've only ever used Lilypond myself, which I really love (I still use it to quickly write down ideas) but that may arguably be more tailored towards beautiful sheet music, rather than actually programming music. If the BASIC music commands in my old MSX from the 80s counts, then I used those too :-D

I found this on Mastodon:

An extensive dictionary of the languages used for programming music.

An example:

'Nyquist: A functional programming language for composition and sound synthesis. Uses a Lisp syntax, a signal processing and signal representation core, and a rich semantics dealing with time and transformations.'

Which ones have you used, if any?
