OSC 3rd Party - Support

• Lemur - high-end... lots of experience... pre-ipad $2k HW, MIDI and OSC
• Mrmr - free and R&D educational based.... lots of features
• OSCemote - similar to touchOSC
• touchOSC - considered reliable and is kept very simple (good)
• GrandVJ - (OSC Server) accepts normalized values 0-1.0 and a single (float) argument message

---

ISSUES

• OSC address formats very

• most common is a single float with normalized range of 0.0 - 1.0

• also common is an array of floats

osc: /Drumpads/x 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0

• sometimes an array precedes with a string descriptor and parameter count

osc: /tuio/2Dcur set 5 0.915625 0.610706 -0.0102614 0.001 0.0336951

• OSCemote missed (at least one) UDP packet -> pd-extended and accel +/- 3.0 range

• Mrmr has an alternate address format that substitutes ' ' spaces for slashes

osc: /mrmr/slider/vertical/...
osc: /mrmr slider veritcal ...

• GrandVJ excepts both Mrmr address formats, in general works with a single float 0-1

• Lemur piano 'Keyboard' crashes pd-extended, says type tag is invalid

the piano 'Keyboard' crashes pd-extended...
...and GrandVJ does not respond but did learn the address:
/MasterKeyboard/white/vel ??? probably an array of floats

pd once generated the err (during crash) stated '...said the type tag is valid, but its not...'
then on restart has trouble connecting:
dumpOSC 8000
... couldn't create

OSCemote

Multi-Touch responds to 5 fingers (iOS)

example shows lifting fingers OFF...
first two floats i think are position... the other 3 accelleration?

Mrmr - 'Tutorial' template

osc: /mrmr/pushbutton/21/z-zs-iPhone 0

osc: /mrmr/slider/horizontal/9/z-zs-iPhone 0.271

alternate address format...???
preference: 'Bundle Message Style' = ON
osc: /mrmr slider horizontal 9 z-zs-iPhone 0.271

note that address length is the same without additional '/' slashes
except for the root slash... GrandVJ excepts both formats
