i'm presuming everyone in this thread knows Grame's FAUST and Cycling 74's GEN
? or maybe i'm missing something about what you want to do? if so apologies.
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)...
