Thanks everyone for the advice-- this is a big help. OSC ought to work well, and I'm not sure how I missed the MAUI routines seeing as I use MiniAudicle on Mac!<div><br></div><div>Andrew<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

<div class="Ih2E3d">> OSC seems closer to a generic way of interchanging data, but it looks like I would have to spork a different thread for each parameter I want to receive (since they'd have different addresses), and that I can only receive one value per OSC event. If I wanted, say, to receive 3 floats as part of one message, is there a way to do that?<br>

</div>OSC is what you want to use. Like Gregory Brown said, you can check<br>
the ChucK examples directory for code that receives multiple values in<br>
one message. You can use that to get around the problem of waiting on<br>
multiple OSC messages (by encoding the type in the data instead of the<br>
name), although there's no way to wait on two different events like in<br>
the code in your P.S.<br>
