## Detailed Description

Audio processing context.

For each processing block the host provides timing information and musical parameters that can change over time. For a host that supports jumps (like cycle) it is possible to split up a processing block into multiple parts in order to provide a correct project time inside of every block, but this behavior is not mandatory. Since the timing will be correct at the beginning of the next block again, a host that is dependent on a fixed processing block size can choose to neglect this problem.
