Isn't that a matter of using the ampersand in front of x->channel ? What 
you use as a t_float * must be at least a pointer to something that can be 
used as a float... but this can be pretty much only t_float or t_word or 
aliases for either of them. So probably the (t_float *) cast shouldn't be 
there at all and there should just be the ampersand that it would need 
anyway... unless x->channel is really a pointer to the variable... I 
haven't seen the source code of this.
