I seem to remember that when I first heard about OSC, one of the applications it was demoed with was to send large arrays of spectral data around to drive STFTs, oscillator banks or phase vocoders. Which is exactly what I'm attempting now. If sending e.g. an FFT frame as one big array was/is not intended, then I'm wondering what the general strategies are to send such large chunks of data. Surely I could split it up in smaller messages but then it'd become kinda tedious to regroup e.g. 32 lists with 32 numbers each back into one frame.
I think the advantage of OSC is the ability to send small chunks of data to specific addresses inside of another process. If you are sending large amounts of almost realtime data, it would be better to use straight UDP.
