yeah, because you most likely capture not _all_ samples and convert them
to messages. in order to do so, you would have to use [vsnapshot~] and
bang it 44.1 times per milliseconds. [snapshot~] wouldn't work, since it
always captures the first (or last?) sample of the block.
an easier way is to use [pack~] and [unpack~] from zexy. those convert a
signal vector (one block of audio samples) to a list of floats and vice
versa. if you want to have a stream of floats instead of lists, use
[drip].
either way you do it, it's going to be expensive.
