CsoundQt is a frontend for Csound featuring a highlighting editor with autocomplete, interactive widgets and integrated help. It is cross-platform and aims to be a simple yet powerful and complete development environment for Csound. It can open files created by MacCsound.

Csound is a musical programming language with a very long history, with roots in the origins of computer music. It is still being maintained by an active community and, despite its age, is still one of the most powerful tools for sound processing and synthesis. CsoundQt hopes to bring the power of Csound to a larger group of people by reducing Csound's initial learning curve and giving users more immediate control of their sound.
