You should check out MusicKit at http://www.musickit.org/

It's a close sibling to OSX which predates CoreAudio. It's very mature, was designed by some really smart and influential audio genius(es), and you would have a hard time building all that you need when it's probably already available there.

Where should I go to read up on audio programming, synthesis, optimization, etc. I'd like to move from being an almost total novice/dilettante to being only a partial novice/dilettante.

I have The Computer Music Tutorial, which I like quite a lot, but that's pretty much the extent of my library. What I'm most interested in is looking at approaches to creating flexible and efficient unit generator graphs. I'd like to have a system which is reasonably modular, which I can reconfigure quickly, but which is also reasonably efficient.

So, is this the sort of thing a book can help me with? Which book?

While I'm on the subject of creating unit generator graphs, I should mention that I'm often wondering whether I would be better off just using something like PD in my app. I like the idea of getting my hands dirty with the raw audio signal, but wonder if for my purposes, an already-built, widely used patching system might be better. http://noisepages.com/groups/pd-everywhere/ I'd rather have something code-based, but I'm not really sure how much effort it's going to take to build my own system which I'm happy with.
