Re: [linux-audio-dev] Python

If you are contemplating a lot of audio synth/dsp tasks using python, you
might want to take a look at RTcmix -- you can build it with a python
front-end:

open-source, cross-platform of course!

Disclaimer: I don't use the python option myself, but several of the
other RTcmix developers use it almost exclusively.
