The only way what you are trying to do is possible is if you run separate schedulers per channel in a dedicated freertos tasks pinned to cores.
As a cooperative scheduler, TaskScheduler does not supper true "parallel" execution as all tasks are running in the same thread.
Conceptually this setup is described here:

Subject: [arkhipenko/TaskScheduler] Assigning a task to a particular core of esp32 (Discussion #166)
Hello everyone,
I am trying to get two taskscheduler tasks to run in parallel, one in each of the two cores of the esp32, is it possible?
I have two audio filters (left and right channel) but the algorithm is still very heavy and the sample rate I am achieving is quite low.
Thanks in advance if you could share any suggestions!
Cheers,
Sergio

Thank you very much Mr Arkhipenko! Very interesting and many things became clearer for me after reading your message and through all the code in your dnd project! I need to get about 50kHz filter cycle execution on both channels, but my filters are crashing at what I guess is about 200 microseconds (5 kHz). I shall check if RTOS task granularity can have ticks shorter than 1 millisecond. Will keep looking for more information. Cheers and many thanks, |

But you can execute any function on a given CPU with esp_ipc_call().

There is no inter-process by design.
Everything runs in the same thread.
You are thinking about this in a multi-threading, multi-process way, and it is not that.

You are completely wrong. Please read the documentation I linked to. Thank
you for your co-operation.

@teuthid - you are welcome to submit a working prototype PR using the IPC. |

@arkhipenko I've used esp_ipc_call() many times in TaskCallback functions to evenly distribute the load across the two cpus. This does not require any modifications to the TaskScheduler. I don't really understand why you consider this to be such a big challenge. Knowledge of ESP-IDF is enough. |

You can try and enable microsecond precision for TaskScheduler. But you might just hit the hardware limit actually.
