I was reading a UK-published mag recently that had information on "OOBIE" or object-oriented input environment tracking! What I mean is, it is a scripting-type programming language that is used to sculpt completely new sounds. The article I read had some freeware and commercial offerings, and i am looking into these more fully as we speak. Imagine it, able to HAND CODE a song!

May I suggest SuperCollider on this note?

open source software, runs on Mac OSX, Linux and Windows. Though the last one still in a very experimental form...

Imagine that!
I don´t trust that modern nonsense, next they´ll be using voltage controll, then where will we be?

(sorry)

Pure Data is also free and does run on Windows without giving a default amount of errors the readme instructs you to ignore.

Max/msp is not free at all but it *is* reported to have very good documentation and it eats arbitrary usb input and it´s hipper then shirts that look like they were bought in a thriftstore or buttons advertising 8 bit games.

Well I have been messing with the programming one. Believe it or not, it actually works. I hooked up my laptop and an instrument with it and its working fine...
