I teach my students that the reason you can't send audio to "message" (i.e. non-audio) objects is that "message" objects run slower.
The only ways that they run slower, is that: messages are only applied to audio between block boundaries; and doing audio processing with [+] takes a lot more cpu time than with [+~] because block processing takes a lot less messages to get the same job done. But for the latter, this is why there is GridFlow and VASP and stuff: they can handle many numbers in few messages.
While this may not be "logically" correct to many of the hackers that live on this list, it is a convenient way to explain the difference to artists just beginning in this world.
I also heard that babies are delivered by storks whenever mommy and daddy love each other very very much. I'm just beginning in this world so I get what I deserve.
Plus I'd like to know what the limits of message processing speed are. In "real time", please.
You can know that in realtime by using pd.
Try [realtime].
