what are some good sites to learn how to Program audio applications like vst insturments or editors in OS9 (and even i guess OSx potentaly). I am somewhat interested in learning the code (would it probably be applescript?right? or ones like C++?) to be able to do some interesting things(though i probably wont be able to to that much) or if there are any good books out there for learning this (i have not looked at a book store recently so there probably are) . well any help would be appreciated though i understand if you dont give a damn about my random thoughts.

Oh ya and i found a DX21 synth for about 50-60$ and it looks like a good deal to me what do any of you think out ther(also i dont have any hardware synths, so this would be my first, unless you can count a cheesy yamaha synth that is only good for a controller oh well). And are there any DX21 editors out there if i decide to get this( there is this one program that says it is just a librarian for SysEx files but some people were saying that it also could act as an editor? )well again any help would be apreciated.

oh, and the dx21? stay well clear, it's ancient, has really poor midi implementation, and there are plenty of FREE vsti fm synths available! crystal from green oak is excellent, fm heaven is pretty good, vivaldi and ganymed are...well...free! fm7 dosen't cost TOO much and is absolutely stunning. the dx21 is also very bulky AND HEAVY. good luck...

Thanks for the info i have played with the demo version of FM7 and i think it is great, i will also have to look at some of those othere free vst instruments. I did know it was fairly old but hey if it was a good deal i wouldnt want to miss it oh well i will save the money for something.
