option to increase buffer size

Is there a reason for having the max buffer size set at 64?

My use case is using block processing to interface with a live input/output with >64 samples (128 to 2048) per "frame".

A buffer of 64 items is not enough for this.

I think the stated reason is to make it easier to stack allocate buffers. Which is not taken advantage of right now. I'm not sure what is the best way forward, do we need the limit or not.

I decided to keep the limit. However, the next version shall have BigBlockAdapter32 and BigBlockAdapter64 defined in the AudioUnit module. They are wrappers that allow arbitrary buffer sizes.
