[plt-scheme] Sound Card Access

Hi Elijah,

I thought this link was generally informative

http://sound.condorow.net/swss.html

SuperCollider isn't Scheme, but it certainly does do the kinds of things 
you might be interested in:

http://www.audiosynth.com/

It is mature, and for some reason, I remember Scheme playing a part in 
its development. Perhaps that was LISP, or perhaps I am wrong.

Lastly, I will point out Impromptu, which is a Scheme programming 
environment for music, and is OSX only.

http://impromptu.moso.com.au/

I downloaded it, found it had a broken editor (compared to 
DrScheme/emacs/vi), and it bound associations for .scm files that upset 
me greatly. It is nowhere near as complete a language as PLT Scheme, and 
therefore there are many things I'm accustomed to doing in Scheme that 
become difficult in Impromptu.

Given infinite time, I'd reimplement Impromptu in PLT Scheme/DrScheme 
using tools like Jon's library... the FrTime/FRP/behavioral stuffs could 
provide a really nice interface into these kinds of "live coding/live 
music" systems...
