[Tutor] Making a sound

[Luke Paireepinart]

You can generate the sound data in a buffer either in native python or using numpy, then play it back by loading the buffer into a sound object with pygame. It depends how much control you want on the sounds. You might want to use csound or supercollider or something if you want to programmatically control a synth rather than directly creating the sound data.

I want to produce a string of sounds based on a character string. Probably not original. :-) I don't want to save a sound to a file and play it afterwards. Preferably it should be something from PYPI. Any suggestions?
