Paul-
I ran into the same thing some years ago trying to implement MIDI
externals. Even with MIDI output when you're dealing with polyphonic
streams to multiple devices, I found it was easier to have LC do
things than to try to keep track of multiple threads in externals.
But things are looking up. Have you looked at the lcidlc folder in the
engine source? There's support for multiple threading in the new
externals api.
