+      FAUST (Functional Audio Stream) is a functional programming
+      language specifically designed for real-time signal processing
+      and synthesis. FAUST targets high-performance signal processing
+      applications and audio plug-ins for a variety of platforms and
+      standards.
+      The Faust compiler translates DSP specifications into very
+      efficient C++ code. Thanks to the notion of architecture,
+      FAUST programs can be easily deployed on a large variety of
+      audio platforms and plugin formats (jack, alsa, ladspa, maxmsp,
+      puredata, csound, supercollider, pure, vst, coreaudio) without
+      any change to the FAUST code.
