Grame is pleased to announce the release of Faust 0.9.9.1.
Faust is a functional programming language for real-time signal

processing and synthesis that targets high-performance audio processing

applications and plugins. The Faust compiler translates Faust programs

into optimized C++ code for a variety of audio platforms : Jack, Alsa,

OSS, Ladspa, VST, MaxMSP, Q, PD, SuperCollider, etc.
What's new ?

------------
- Pattern Matching : introduction of pattern matching based definitions,

a powerful programming technique used in many modern functional

programming languages like Q, Haskell, ML, CAML, Clean, etc.
- Support for QT4 applications : two new architecture files have been

added to generate native QT4 applications : jack-qt.cpp and alsa-qt.cpp.

Use 'make jackqt' and 'make alsaqt' in the examples folder to generate

QT4 applications.
- Improved GTK support : all GTK architecture files have been updated to

correct the reversed vertical slider issue.
- 64-bits compatibility : the Faust compiler and the generated C++ code

are now fully 64-bits compatible.
- Improved Max/Msp support : the compilation process has been

simplified. It now directly uses gcc instead of xcode projects. It is

based on Max/MSP 4.6 SDK and generates universal binary .mxo on Intel

platforms.
