SuperCollider VS Chataigne

Csound is... "interesting". If you want to play with something more modern, have a look at https://supercollider.github.io/ instead. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

So you’re wondering what would making music with code look like? The tools I’m familiar with are TidalCycles, Sonic Pi, and SuperCollider.

It's an extremely powerful software that can do a lot of different things, however I warn you, it's not a lighting software per say. While you technically can control DMX fixtures entirely from it, by default it doesn't handle fixture management. You can extend that using community plugins or... Source: 5 months ago

Tools like Ossia Score, Chataigne and PureData (pd) can also help a ton in building interactive art and triggering other A/V software. Source: 12 months ago
