Faced with this scenario I would probably have tried dynamic sends, so 
the data determines which receive gets the message.

For example:

...
  |
[pack f f f f f f]
  |
[ ; r-$1-$2-$3 $4 $5 $6 (


[r r-1-4-7]
  |
[unpack f f f]
  |
...

[r r-27-63-49]
  |
[unpack f f f]
  |
....

And using nested abstractions you could create the receives based on 
$args, and if you need lots of voices you could use dynamic patching to 
instantiate them.
