I'm trying to come up with a patch, and I've created a stumbling block. Maybe someone can point me in the right direction?

I'm looking for an object that can perform the same function as 'route', but can accept a 'set' message? I've already considered 'forward', but it doesn't quite do what I need it do do.

To be more specific, I'm creating a patch for working with OSC messages and my Lemur. I'm essentially trying to build a 'Midi-learn' feature, but for an OSC device, so that while I'm using the object called '/Interface/Container1/Multiball' (for example), I can press a button, and have MAX automatically create 3 objects, which would, ideally, be:

1. 'route /Interface/Container1/Multiball/x'

2. 'route /Interface/Container1/Multiball/y'

3. 'route /Interface/Container1/Multiball/z'

Unfortunately, it would appear that route can't receive a 'set' message. For awhile, I thought of using 'forward', but this also creates problems, as the destinations aren't changeable.

Any ideas? To rephrase, I'm looking for the equivalent of 'route', but with the ability to receive 'set' messages.

If you're using OSC, use OSC-route (part of the CNMAT package). You can set it dynamically.

Here's a [route] wrapper that lets you dynamically recreate it with new (and multiple) arguments:
