i'm actually just very interested in this subject myself. surely the first step 
would be to appraise two of the excellent solutions already out there?

Faust is amazing. it can compile to many different end targets and even has 
it's own IDE in FaustWorks. Also, Albert Graf has embedded it (of sorts) into 
Pd already (via Pure). very powerful combo. the language itself is a little 
mathematical, finicky and technically minded though.

Of course there are a number of audio frameworks with math possibilities (in fact I worked on it myself, too), but there are a variety of questions involved and it may be hard to match the question for certain powers like z-tranform blocks with the various options.

There are also hard limits to what most environments can actually do when it comes to complicated issues, for instance convolutions are causal and take long (in theory in many cases infinite) computations lengths (=signal delays), and inverses of processing can be as complicated as designing electronics networks (which can be quite complicated)...
