Feature Request? Return Info/Objects from OSC-Messages? #57

Open ozett opened 10 years ago

ozett commented 10 years ago

Hi, I managed to control Pixelcontroller via some simple OSC-Messages, send via osc-send from the toolkit. I change Presets with this. Is there a way to query Pixelcontroller which Preset or Generator is actually running? I dont see some Return-Objects or any method to query actual Infos from running Instance, instead of perfomance.

Thanx, Pixelcontroller is running great !! ozett

This on the todo list, as the next release should contain a touchosc gui this feature will be included.

Hi, right now i managed to send OSC-Messages to Pixelcontroller to change presets.

as long as there is no status-info about a currently running preset implemented, i have a workaroung to store the running state in the fixed preset-nr 140 and recall it from there. But i have timing issues between the separatle send commands of 1) change_preset to 140, and 2) save_preset, 3) change_preset new, 4)load_preset...

That brought me to scan through the OSCspecification 1.0, which showed me a "OSC-Bundle". With this i could send both OSC-Messages in one "OSC-Packet". My question: if i go further in this direction: is "OSC-Bundle" implemented in pixelcontroller 2.0/2.1 ?

besides that, Thanx, Pixelcontroller is running great !! and still discovering great presets ....!! ozett
