hello.

I'm using PD for controlling SuperCollider Synths via OSC and having trouble on how to format SC messages in PD format.

I encounter object like 'sprintf' and honestly do not understand very well.

I have some SC syntax like,

a = Synth(\dyn, [\freqs, Array.rand(8, 100, 200), \out,102])

and

error: sendOSC: no method for 'sprintf'
error: sendOSC: no method for '['freqs''
error: sendOSC: no method for 'Array.rand(8'
error: sendOSC: no method for 'float'
error: sendOSC: no method for '200)])'
sprintf's error: an object created without valid format patterns...
sprintf's error: an object created without valid format patterns...

Is there a comprehensive documentation on formatting messages in PD?
how they interpret things like "[" or commas and stuff.
I just need to make bunch of message boxes with SC command to send over PD's sendOSC object. it helps me not to type this things in SC but just click it in PD.
but I have no idea on how sendOSC will interpret strings and intergers, commas, semi-colones...etc.

'will be much appriciated.

thank you.

Can you not create all your synths and desired SC functions in SC first, then you can call numbers to the appropriate namespaces to indcate their status (i.e. 1 = on 0 = off)

perhaps if you convert your messages to symbols, they might pass through OSC land?

apparrently, I read somewhere that sendOSC is dated. you should now use the objects [udpsend] [udpreceive]

thanks for the reply. I use a special Library called "OpenObject" in SC, I'm not sure if they support [updsend] object, I might ask there.
