Some remarkable examples already exist, see http://www.csounds.com for references. Csound also now has an API, so you can create standalone synthesizers that can access the incredible wealth of Csound's synthesis primitives, signal processors, MIDI opcodes, and so forth. Very cool, very new, not very well-exploited yet. And for those who care, Csound is far more 64-bit friendly than either SC3 or ChucK (both of which are nice, but they have troubles with 64-bit hardware). Best, dp
