So I would opt to have REAKTOR removed since its more of a synth builder than a programming environment (?)
 
== re: jMax etc. ==
 
As of 2009 jMax development is on again, but there has been no public release. The inclusion of Common Music in the last table is a mistake: CM is not an audio synthesis environment, it is a Lisp-based music composition environment with no audio synthesis capabilities. The latest versions do include a library of instruments designed with Bill Schottstaedt's Common Lisp Music (CLM), which should have been included on this page. Ditto for Cmix/Rtmix. To be honest, the rubric "audio synthesis environment" covers a very broad swath of definition: Is a VSTi plugin an audio synthesis environment ? What exactly differentiates an environment from an application ? If the programming aspect is definitive, how is "programming audio synthesis" defined ? Again, is a VSTi plugin not an audio synthesis environment, and are we not programming it while twiddling virtual knobs and sliders ?
 
Btw, speaking of "historical" systems, how many people are still using the Kyma system ? [[Special:Contributions/98.30.49.10|98.30.49.10]] ([[User talk:98.30.49.10|talk]]) 14:02, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
