The problem is that my tone colors need the higher SR - though this may 
ultimately be the compromise I need to make.

Breakup is a lot better when I set -b4096 and -B8192, as well as ksmps=441 
(for SR=44100). I was using ksmps=10.

Obviously I've gotten spoiled by our more modern, powerful computers. (And 
me a minimalist.)
