What synth tool has been completely new in the last 20 years? Not a whole lot.... its ALLLLLLL about making the tools useable, something people like you seem to be clueless about.

I respect your skill at programming music software but you are really out of touch with win/mac audio software to make this statement. Anyone who would have looked at what has just come out at Messe/NAMM would have to conclude the totall opposite.
Even on the freeware side mac/win blows linux apart as far as audio software goes.

As far as experimental software goes linux hardly has anything(unless you count csound/PD that can run on all 3 platforms) that can compete with soundhack, the composers desktop project, MAX/MSP or Reaktor.
