This reminds me of how long and how badly I have wanted to acquire a Kyma Pacarana. The thing is a 4 thousand dollar box of wonderful sound design magic. Being a hobbyist that only sporadically dabbles in music production and sound design I just can't justify it (yet!).

They have an SDK from what a colleague tells me who uses it extensively and also sometimes have secondhand units available, ask their team or join the mailing list.

This is a list of software tools and libraries related to audio, it is not about hardware.

Kyma is audio DSP software backed by dedicated DSP processors and something that is highly relevant to a discussion about audio DSP, but thanks for adding so much to the conversation with your pedantic nitpicking.

I don't know why you would be so upset by this. This is a link to free software and you mentioned expensive hardware. It isn't the same thing at all.

There is literally a section of this list titled "Hardware/Embedded" https://github.com/olilarkin/awesome-musicdsp#hardwareembedd...

Those are small components, not four thousand dollar commercial products.

That would be like someone linking electric motors and someone posting only "I can't wait to buy a tesla roadster".

OIC... you were triggered by me dreaming about an expensive, professional, software/hardware platform because it’s too expensive to meet YOUR qualifications for someone else’s list?

No one is triggered by anything. Do you really not realize that what you said has nothing to do with anything in the link? If someone linked a hammer would you post about a house you want to buy?
