Thanks for your reply.
If I understand you correctly, I am already doing all that by having one updateUI function per instrument, which does:
self.myProperty = self->myStorageVariable
on every variables.
All updateUI selectors are sent to all instruments, at the same time, from the main thread by a timer dispatch source, once every second.

Just be sure to do the same on your background threads when updating them; using the synchronize block to set multiple values at once is better than using multiple atomic properties.
