"Crystal is a semi-modular software synthesizer featuring both subtractive synthesis and frequency modulation (FM) synthesis. It offers abundant modulation control with over 90 parameters which may be modulated, multi-stage envelopes with graphical editors, extensive tempo sync of envelopes/lforates/delay times, built-in effects for chorus/flanging/comb filtering/echoes, and a band splitter for effects processing by frequency band. Not only that, Crystal has wave sequencing, granular synthesis, program morphing, MIDI learn, and imports soundfonts. The musical applications for Crystal are literally boundless. Crystal is a plugin, which means it runs within a host, such as Cubase, Orion, Logic, Fruity Loops, etc. "

Processing is an open source programming language and environment for people who want to create images, animations, and interactions. Initially developed to serve as a software sketchbook and to teach fundamentals of computer programming within a visual context, Processing also has evolved into a tool for generating finished professional work. Today, there are tens of thousands of students, artists, designers, researchers, and hobbyists who use Processing for learning, prototyping, and production. * » Free to download and open source * » Interactive programs using 2D, 3D or PDF output * » OpenGL integration for accelerated 3D * » For GNU/Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows * » Projects run online or as double-clickable applications * » Over 100 libraries extend the software into sound, video, computer vision, and more... * » Well documented, with many books available

Create animated videos with go animate.

Cacoo is a diagram creation tool that runs in your web browser. Multiple people can work together on the same diagram in real time. Diagrams can be published directly to websites, wikis, and blogs.

LucidChart is the missing link in online productivity suites. LucidChart allows users to create, collaborate on, and publish attractive flowcharts and other diagrams from a web browser. To accomplish this, it adheres to the following design ideals: The interface must be clean and intuitive to serve as a solution for experienced diagrammers and new users alike. Collaboration must be easy to set up and easy to use. Users should never be locked out of a document, or kept from editing it, just because another user is currently working on it. The experience will be the same across different browsers and devices without using plugins (i.e., Flash) by building on HTML5 and other web standards. Publishing to PDF or other image formats must be easy and robust.
