Sonix and DMCS are both scoring programs.  Sonix is the lesser of the two,
but offers better samples sound handling.  It does allow some rudimentary
synthesis - offering similar controls of an analog synth.  DMCS is strictly
for scoring.

An interesting program that demonstrates the synthesis of sounds for various
type of instruments (ie string, percussion, etc) is Synthis from The Other 
Guys (I think).  I'm not sure if it's still around, but it s very versatile.
