There's also cmix, available via anonymous ftp from princeton.edu. It reads/writes soundfile scompatible with both the CARL package and csound. I believe cmix is in general the fastest of the three, and I prefer it because it allows one to use the "power and flexibility" of C to do bizarre things to sound. And it's free.
