Hello Mike,

Since Machine.add is hitting the file system and parsing and evaluating the 
ChucK scripts, it might work better to do all of that in one go when not 
generating sound

Machine.add("thingOne.ck");
Machine.add("thingTwo.ck");
Machine.add("thingThree.ck");
Machine.add("thingFour.ck");

And then later call methods to initialize them serially or in different shreds, 
something like

thingOne.start();
thingTwo.start();
thingThree.start();
thingFour.start();

spork ~ thingOne.start();
spork ~ thingTwo.start();
spork ~ thingThree.start();
spork ~ thingFour.start();

Hope this helps,

   michael
