So now the questions seem to be: how difficult is today to wrap a C library? Which is the right tool to do it? C-Haskell? About low-level... Using C libraries, or using Haskell to produce CSound scripts, or SAOL, etc. is always possible, but not too ambitious, for a genuine Functional Sectarian. If you permit a shameless plug, I produced some purely functional programs which generated/simulated basic musical instruments using the waveguide models. It has been don not in Haskell but in Clean, since Clean arrays and unboxed lists were much more efficient than the equivalent structures in Haskell *at the time when I worked on that*. If you wish to have a look on the paper: http://users.info.unicaen.fr/~karczma/arpap/cleasyn.pdf Of course I can send the Clean stuff to the volenti as well, but I am aware that this is a 5th-column attitude in a Haskell list... Still, you can try to translate the models into Haskell, which should be conceptually trivial. The best.

That's not so bad if we can afford a little latency.
