I really shouldn't have said "UNIX way". It really is more a "LISP way" I guess. LISP predates UNIX. My point was just that it's an "interface" that's more in line with how compute…

The other thing to consider is that audio processing is resource intensive. Many times you need to run many things at once and performance suffers. Guess what else is resource inte…
