Humm... I didn't know that there are different way to handle audio
stream in PD. Can PD directly manage overlapp and stuff like that?
Where I can read something about that? (I've already read your very
useful guide: HOWTO write an External for Pure Data)

Yes... I think that [out/in] ring-buffer is a good practice!

Ok... as I said before, I would like to learn more about this! :)
It seems a useful facility!
Thank you
