| The snappy answer to this is: any manufacturer who takes up the design.
I don't know if any such manufacturers are in the pipeline (there are
some fairly obvious candidates, of course), but any that are will be
keeping very quiet about it.
It seems to me the best trick is to email manufacturers, either directly
or through user forums, to hint gracefully that having XTCsound
available on a soundcard might be a good idea. Csound is still seen as a
somewhat 'techy' and esoteric program by the great majority of home
studio composers doin' drum'n bass, or whatever, so that the perceived
level of demand may not be that great, from a manufactururs point of
view. It is as much up to us to change that percetion, as up to ADI
themselves, who, we may be sure, are working on manufacturers
assiduously behind the scenes!
