Could you give a csound example? It's been awhile since I've played with
Supercollider, but

Things like creating
hundreds/thousands of sinewave oscillators that fade out over time and get
garbage collected
when each envelope hits zero. (All without audio dropouts, of course.)

Interesting, I've never looked at that one. Thanks.
