OSC and iphone re: type tags Can't Post

Hi,

I'm new to using OSC and was just scratching my head about why i can have OSCulator reading input from my iphone (running mrmr at the time) but Izzy doesn't read anything on the listener.
I set up the phone as a serial port but upon reading posts and the manual I'm confused about the idea of Type Tags within these iphone apps. Understandably when communicating between normal computer softwares the options are wide open but unless I see some zone in the prefs of mrmr or Touch OSC (don't have it yet) that requests a specific type tag, I wonder if these programs are passive and just spit out OSC hoping something is listening, and if so, is there a way that Isadora will openly listen to all incoming messages?

Thanks,
A

Isadora "listens" for OSC on UDP port 1234 by default. (You can change the port in the preferences.)

You must send messages to Isadora in the format

/isadora/1 #VALUE#

It is best if "type tags" are enabled; if they are not, Isadora will assume that the value is a floating point number.

The problem, as I remember, from mrmr is that you cannot set the addresses, i.e., to /isadora/1

At this time, there is no way to have Isadora listen to other OSC addresses without a separate piece of software.

Hope this information helps,
Mark

Re: [Mark Coniglio] OSC and iphone re: type tags [In reply to] Can't Post

Hello,
I did a max 5 patch to send some iphone values to Isadora on localhost (running on the same computer). The iphone app I use is Touch OSC. In order to make it work you have to own max in order to change the ip address to your current one or you change it manualy both on ihone and computer)
In max you can prepend the tag (/Isadora/1) to the value. It would be nice though to have in Isadora the osc listener actor that listens to any osc value having a field where one could write the tag it listens to.... But to do this we need in Isadora a small window like the max window in max in orger to understand what are the osc values sent to it..... Wink

If you get the Touch OSC editor you can create controls that send to Isadora directly. Get the editor here:

http://hexler.net/software/touchosc

See the attached file I made using the editor; it sends the sliders to /isadora/1, /isadora/2, etc.

Note that you cannot use the 2D Slider and the Matrix Button things because Touch OSC appends more to the address for those specific controls.

The next version of Isadora will allow you to receive any OSC address... so this problem will be solved.

Best Wishes,
Mark

Hi Mark,

It sounds interesting so i would love to try it but I didn't see the attachment on the forum. Could you post your file that you made with the OSC editor again please?

Many thanks,
jan

For now you can run PureData (see hexler.net for links and downloads) to convert OSC to Midi CC, and then set Izzy to listen for Midi instead. Install MidiYoke, route PureData MIDI output to MidiYoke Virtual Input, tell Izzy to listen on MidiYoke virtual Output.

There is a tool on hexler to create a PD Patch from your TouchOSC map.

Voila. Type tags no longer required. PD can listen for OSC on any UDP port specified in touchosc. All current limitations worked round until the next release is available.
