I've got an itch to test some synthesis[*] and control[**] algorithms I've got in mind[***]. What's the real-time audio streaming library on top of which ChucK is built, and where can I find its current repository? Related, what are the most current libraries to write an array of binary data to a sound file for playback? - Rob [*] Cross-coupled resonators, where each resonator is computationally super cheap (and stable).

If you mean the realtime streaming of data to the soundcard; RTAudio. It's very cross-platform and popular for these things. If that's not what you mean you'll need to re-phrase the question.

LibSndFile. It'll load soundfiles for you (as long as those are not mp3) and it'll write them to disk. Hope that helps, Kas.

That's the one -- thank you. I found Gary Scavone's excellent package and downloaded it.

Looks good. It occurs to me that I should look at BIL's own sndlib even though it's way more than sound conversion. His code is historically bullet-proof.
Hope that helps, Kas.
Yep! Thanks. - Rob
Rob; Looks good.
I don't think you'll regret those choices; those two are basically the standards for FOSS/DIY synth/sound programs. If you do come up with some good stuff I'd like to read about it and look at the code, especially your cross-coupled cheap resonators; I could use a good and unusual resonator in C++. Yours, Kas.
