I think you might want to have a look at aRts - there is a lot you can do
with the small modules that already ship with a recent aRts (i.e. version
from CVS), and if that's not enough, add an own module. It can do modular
synthesis reasonable well, and play samples. There are network transparent
midi interfaces. Due to the aRts/MCOP communication approach, you might
even be able to easily bind new languages (like perl) to it, if you like.
Normally you will use C++.
Have a look at
http://space.twc.de/~stefan/kde/arts-mcop-doc/
http://www.arts-project.org
Quickstart to get this is to install a KDE2.1 beta version and play around
with artsbuilder.
Cu... Stefan
