Kyma--which can also do whatever you want with sound, all at the same time,
and has a long development history and helpful user base--(Scope uses the

I agree, I was reading these posts and thinking, "yeah, but the Kyma System
does all that already."  Considering the people at Symbolic Sound are not
afraid of writing a bunch of code, as more powerful hardware platforms are
developed, they will port their systems over to it. The Kyma System is so
open-ended I wouldn't know where to start......
