if you attach a [dac~] directly to the osc~ object, do you still get crackles?

There isn't just 1 [osc~] object in the whole system, there are (at least) 6, 3 for each of 2 triaxial accelerometers.

If I try an [osc~] into a [dac~] independently there is no problem (driven "by hand").

I'll try again just driving the frequency of 1 [osc~] with 1 dimension of 1 accelerometer (happens to be a Wiimote via OSC).

if not, then i guess your problem might lie further down the line.

looking at your PAN module, the panning amount is sent as a float into [*~ ] objects without [line~] smoothing. that would be the likeliest culprit i reckon.

A good idea to improve that anyway, and I did, however there is no obvious audio improvement.

by the way, is it even possible to get clicks when rapidly changing osc~ speeds? i didn't think it was, and i have never experienced that.

Precisely why I am "bamboozled", it may well have another cause in my wider synthesis system. (I have used a quite similar accelerometer audio synthesis system for years in JSyn without this trouble).

Thanks for taking the trouble to consider my situation and challenge my assumptions, appreciated,

I'll keep looking/listening, and try breaking things back down to a very simple test suite first,
