Sending OSC

osc-send

The main function to send OSC messages in OM# is osc-send.

osc-send can send:

• An OSC message formatted as a list ("/address" value1 value2 ...)
• A list of OSC messages
• An OSC-BUNDLE object

→ See also OSC Messages and Bundles

The message is sent to the IP address specified in the second input (by default, set to "localhost" – IP: 127.0.0.1), and to the UDP port specified as third parameter.

Sending OSC when playing objects

osc-send can be set as the action to play certain types of objects (e.g. BPF, BPC, 3DC…).

Two options are generally possible:

• Set lambda patch/function, or a function name as the “action”, and include osc-send in the function:

• When available, select send-as-osc as predefined action:

Play!

→ See: “Actions” in the BPF page.

Playing OSC-BUNDLE objects

When used in a DATA-TRACK container, OSC-BUNDLE OSC-sends its contents through UDP as default action.

The target IP address and port are specified in the General Preferences.
