A nice way to start audio app programing is FAUST, you can write you

algorithm in "plain math" and let it translate from the FAUST compiler

to C++.

Faust build the dsp code and, if you wont a GUI Interface. The resulting

Source Code show some nice habits for how you can design your app to get

a clean distance between the GUI part and the dsp part. The FAUST

compiler optimize your "math dsp" to run real fast and stable.

You can rework the C++ source afterwards with the IDE of your choice.

Also FAUST comes with some faust libs with contain some nice filters

osci and math funktions and a bunch of examples to start with.

Faust could also translate your code to a  Pd patch. And mutch more.
