Syntax
SendOSC [ID] "/[OSCAddress],[OSC Type],[Value]"
The supported types are:
- Int(i)
- Float(f)
- Blob(b)
- String(s)
- True(T)
- False(F)
- Null(N)
- Impulse(I)
- Timetag(t)
It is not necessary to set a value (Payload) for:
- True
- False
- Null
- Impulse
- Timetag
Hint: | |
When using the OSC types True, False, Nil/Null, Impulse and Timetag it is not necessary to enter a value. |
Hint: | |
Several values can be sent at once when separated by commas. |
Important: | |
When addressing an executor, a page must be specified as well. |
Instead of using page and executor numbers, it is also possible to address them by name.
When addressing executor keys, a value of 0 will be interpreted as not pressed. Values greater 0 will be interpreted as button press.
If a prefix is specified for an OSCData entry, then this very prefix will be added to the sent string when using the OSCSend command.
Hint: | |
The supported OSC types to control faders, executor knobs, and buttons are: Integer32, Float32, True, False and Nil/Null. A True will be interpreted as 1, while a False will be interpreted as 0. |
Hint: | |
The addresses defined for Page, Fader, ExecutorKnob, and Key are case-sensitive. |
