IIRC, in max, updreceive outputs osc messages while in the Pd objects iemnet/udpreceive or [netreceive -u -b] output the raw udp packet as a list of bytes. You need another object to parse the data. Pd vanilla has [oscparse], but personally i prefer the mrpeach/unpackOSC resp. osc/unpackOSC externals.
