Multichannel expansion is your friend.
thanks. At the moment, I have a synth with 6 control out busses which I poll, and then get a nice array back. Now the question is, which is mor efficient. If I have about 20-30 such synths running, then is it faster to poll the busses in groups (I had trouble with polling all at once, it caused a momentary lapse in the video) , or to parse individual trigs. I am considering rewriting everything with internal busses, and then sending arrays of drawing information to proce55ing via osc. I'm just worried, that I might want to have an external SC Server(s) at some point to handle the soundprocessing load. still undecided. Otherwise I need to get Javaosc working just once. It looks like it might be better to use than OscP5.
