- PaulDavisThe1st 3y agoau contraire. CSound is akin to a badly written assembly language for audio synthesis and processing. SuperCollider (or more precisely, SClang) is more like Lisp for audio synthesis and processing. One important difference is that the designer of SClang understand roughly 1000% more about programming languages than the designer of CSound (who was a visionary person, but who really didn't understand programming languages).
- spacechild1 3y agoSclang has little similarities with Lisp, its biggest influence is Smalltalk! Or did you mean it somehow metaphorically?
