I am just using Keykit to do the midi file and then using Csound to render
the sound or you can "pipe" it to Csound for real-time playback using Hubi's
loopback or a similar device.  I don't know about platforms besides Win95
and WinNT since those are all I have running right now.  Most of my
algorithms are written as functions right now so when I call the function it
starts playing the piece pretty much immediately.

One advantage to using Keykit is that its simple enough to not hog all the
system resources, its cross-platform (isn't it?) and it is a programming
language so if you like Csound there's a good chance you will like Keykit.
