Obviously, OSC objects do already exist for Max... it should not be to diffcult to adapt them for pd http://cnmat.cnmat.berkeley.edu/OpenSoundControl/clients/max-objs.html

It seems to me there is a really very good idea here. The OpenSoundControl (OSC) protocol has recently been added to Csound, and I think a few other apps will add it soon, so an OSC port within PD would seem to be a useful thing. With reference to VST, the idea of a plugin (could be a DirectX version as well) which acted as a network port for control and/or audio data seems very worthwhile for all sorts of tasks, especially where some cross-platform code compatibility is important (otherwise, one would just use COM). It might therefore be good to use a general protocol such as OSC.
There is also the Network Audio Server project, at: http://radscan.com/nas.html
which looks very interesting, especially if it would be possible to make a native Windows port, so that VST/DX plugins could talk to it. If indeed this hasn't already been done by anyone, I am interested to have ago, as I am doing both VST and DX plugin development at the moment.

Hi list, is there an easy way to automate pd from any good
sequencer program
(under linux or W2k)? I guess the most felxible way (under Windows) would be a VST
plugin which
sends messages (or even audio streams) over a net socket, so
that it can be
received by netsend... has anything comparable already been done? How could something like that be done under linux?
