Someone mentioned maybe csound would not be good for the Ben, since it has no FPU. However, there is evidence that some hacker had csound working on the sharp zaurus as early as 2003: from http://www.csounds.com/news/archive/news03.html towards the bottom- [04.02.03]
B.M.Moran releases Csound for the Sharp Zaurus

At Last... Csound in Your Pocket!

I believe the model he was talking about was the SL-5500 or 5600. which is either an 206mhz arm or 400 Mhz xburst.

Even if it runs slowly, we would still have a good synthesis programming language on the Ben... perhaps now it will not seem so impossible. And since it is a pre-compiled language, at least the sounds you created would not lag.

Cheers
