Hello Niklas. Your class idea is good, and your old code is very close to working. The problem is scope-related. In our OSC receiving method, you create an instance of MyBuzzer, then spork a method from it. But your object "buzzer" gets freed at the end of that code block, so the object your sporked thread references to no longer exists! You need to instantiate MyBuzzer in the sporked thread, not the main thread. This modified version worked for me: class MyBuzzer { SawOsc saw => LPF lp => ADSR e => Dyno dyn => dac; ADSR filt => Gain fg => blackhole; 10 => fg.gain; Step s; s => filt; 1 => s.next; // one-shot sine spork fun void buzz(float freq, float gain, int a, int d, int sus, int r) { a + d + sus + r => int overall; freq => saw.freq; e.set( a::ms, d::ms, gain, r::ms ); filt.set( a::ms, (sus - r)::ms, gain, r::ms ); dyn.limit; gain / 4 => dyn.thresh; if(d == 0) { 0 => e.decayRate; 0 => filt.decayRate; } now + overall::ms => time then; spork ~ filteradsr(then, freq); e.keyOn(); filt.keyOn(); sus::ms => now; e.keyOff(); filt.keyOff(); r::ms => now; // I removed the connect and disconnect code because it wasn't the problem } fun void filteradsr (time then, float freq) { while (now < then) { float currfilt; filt.last() * 800 + 100 => currfilt; currfilt => lp.freq; 1::ms => now; } } } // this will get sporked fun void sporkedBuzzer(float freq, float gain, int a, int d, int s, int r ) { MyBuzzer buzzer; buzzer.buzz(freq, gain, a, d, s, r); } // create our OSC receiver OscRecv recv; // use port 6449 (or whatever) 6449 => recv.port; // start listening (launch thread) recv.listen(); // create an address in the receiver, store in new variable recv.event( "/buzz, f f i i i i" ) @=> OscEvent @ oe; // infinite event loop while( true ) { // wait for event to arrive oe => now; // grab the next message from the queue. while( oe.nextMsg() ) { oe.getFloat() => float freq; oe.getFloat() => float gain; oe.getInt() => int a; oe.getInt() => int d; oe.getInt() => int s; oe.getInt() => int r; spork ~ sporkedBuzzer(freq, gain, a, d, s, r); } } On 03/31/2015 12:26 PM, Niklas Reppel wrote:

As i want to use a filter with adsr, i can't just spork a single method right ?

But, with the current version, the Jack-Server (i'm on Linux) shuts the client down, with the following message:

(JACK) the JACK server is shutting down this client... ... stream stopped and closed!

Anyone's got an idea why ?

Hi Niklas, Just a general remark about Jack and the error: (JACK) the JACK server is shutting down this client... ... stream stopped and closed! I don't know why but if you are using Jack 1 this should occur often. I (and some others) recommend to use Jack 2 instead. It is more stable. Julien On 01/04/2015 12:32, Niklas Reppel wrote:

Oh, ok, makes sense, i'll try that !

Thanks!

Though i still wonder why it's Jack that's complaining, and not ChucK itself ... weird ..
