Agreed. It is also capable of completely customizable microtuning,
which, despite what some of you may have heard, is not possible on any
hard synth. They may say it is- but you are limited by the number of
keys on the hardware, which is not the case with Csound.
I used to harp about the difficulty of using Csound with any fluency,
but this is a difference of degree, not of kind: It is hard to learn,
but I believe someone very experienced with Csound can work as
efficiently as someone very experienced with simpler interfaces, doing
the same tasks.
