That is excellent and I really like the sound of it. Someone please inform the authors of Apple's iPhone sample code so that I won't have to deal with C++ anymore! (I'm looking at YOU, SpeakHere!)

When properly used, Objective-C programs are no more likely to be preempted than any other kind of program.  Message dispatch generally has constant time and is only 2.5 times the cost of a C function call.  There aren't many function calls or messages sent in audio processing anyway.  Signal processing routines tend to be long loops.  Objective-C _IS_ C which means it is likely usable in any situation where C is usable.
