I really don't know what I want to do. A friend of mine suggested a synth, but it's not as easy as he imagines. "Just slap together a sine and a saw generator and modulate them". I think I'll have to do the project with another guy, so I'll have to convince him and the teacher of the idea, whatever it may be. It would also be easier to do the thing in swift, apple's new proprietary language, which seems to be generally easier to handle than Objective-C. AFAIK it's possible to mix it with Objective-C though, so the binding stuff should work. What would I need to take are of to keep the thing portable, at least to Linux? Objective-C compilers exist for Linux, Swift compilers do not and probably will not in the foreseeable future. I think the UI and at least parts of the audio code (I'm thinking about synth <-> soundserver for example) would need to be rewritten anyway. I think it would be more sensible to rewrite it in another language entirely.
