What we're exploring now is a way for a worker to talk directly to the audio back-end. There won't be latency issues, because you will feed the audio buffers from underneath, as it were, bypassing the main thread altogether. The current issues you have are the result of workers needing to write the audio from the main thread. Our initial tests with this have been very good, but we're figuring out a proper interface and some impl details. Dave
