Just trying to figure out if there is a way to use the animation data in a 3D model file to control audio/MIDI. Not the other way around. Can the animation information that the jit.gl.model object reads be sent somewhere as a stream of numbers so I can manipulate audio/MIDI.

sure can. you simply bind the internal bones to an external jit.anim.node, and then query the worldpos / worldrotatexyz each frame.

you can do the binding either by sending "copynodestoclipboard" and then pasting in your patch, or by simply setting the name attribute of jit.anim.node to the bone name. you can get bonenames with the "getbonenames" message.
