Hi Gord,
If I may disagree, SuperCollider is in the same family of software as
PureData (Pd) and Max/MSP. Except it is based on "regular" text-based
programming as opposed to "visual" programming. SuperCollider users use it
for anything from music composition in studio to live electronics on stage,
as well as sound design, etc. So it is not at all limited to "developer
space", quite the contrary: most SC users I know are artists and musicians
making music with it.
Besides, UbuntuStudio does include PureData, so I see no conceptual reason
not to include SuperCollider as well.
Best,
Bruno
