I don't know if this will help anyone out there, but I have had quite a bit of experience with getting OSC to work with chuck. While waiting for the chuck string manipulation features (which are on the horizon) I worked out a solution that is a bit of a kludge, but functional for now. OSCroute in pd gives a very flexible structure for parsing arbitrary OSC message. Once the message is parsed it is fairly simple to convert it to an appropriate midi message and then pass the midi parameter to chuck via the AIC midi bus (at least on the mac). Of course, this becomes a mute point once string manipulation, regex, etc. become integrated into chuck.
