i am not on the chuck dev team, so i speak only for myself. in the
open source audio world there's less an emphasis on 'better' in the
way that microsoft may promote vista as 'better' [for microsoft
shareholders mostly]. these projects are run by volunteers and usually
advocacy [or 'advertising'] is the lowest priority [not always].

search the mailing list. you'll have to do this work yourself. but i
think you should spend some time thinking about what you want and how
you like to work first.

1. download chuck
2. rtfm
3. produce audio
4. try to make it better
[keep repeating steps 2-4]
also, you can replace chuck with csound or pd for two differeing views
into digital audio. and even though you say you are not a programmer,
if you're going to use a computer to make music, it is very helpful to
learn how it works [which means understanding something about
programming].
