Re: multi-process app and AudioUnit Question

The API explicitly establishes the connection between and AU and a view as a single process. However, we have enforced in the design a separation of the AU from its view, so *theorectically* this is possible. In practise, many AU's assume that the view and the AU are in a single process (and thus sharing an address space, passing pointers, etc...).

In short, currently the convenient answer is no. There are still a few unresolved issues here about the role/responsibility of the host app as the issues such as private properties, endianness, parameters have to be resolved. We will have more to say on this going forward.

Hey all,

My app runs in seperate processes, one for the gui and one for the AudioEngine. They comunicate mostly via a socket. I'd like to add support for AudioUnit plugins, but, as I am a bit unfamiliar with the architecture, it's not clear to me if it's possible to display a gui element for an AudioUnit running in another Process.

	Is this in fact possible? would it be hard to implement?

	Thanks in Advance!
