there is a _port_ of csound to Be, but it is just that, a port. AFAIK it
isnt multithreaded or changed to take advantage of Be system architecture.
doing so would/will take a lot of work.

opinions on csound: there is this curve of capability versus
complication, where they mutually increase one another. csound is the
ugliest most amazing sound software you can use. (imo). i love it.
