TIP--Controlling Visuals With DAW Track Volumes

Neat-O, Gang! Neat-O.....

Excellent! I was having trouble recreating the problem--that's great you figured something out!

It's back to not working.

I guess I just don't really get how I should map the OSC thing. Sometimes when I highlight a parameter the OSC address will read "activelayer/...", other times "layer1/..." etc. And just being able to choose which paramter to get an OSC address to is ... not exactly intuitive. Is there any documentation on the mapping of OSC in Resolume somewhere? I can't seem to find it in the manual.

So I press "map osc", click layer (as I want to be able to modulate several layers), click a parameter (of say an effect), get the "OSC IN" address in the left hand corner, copy and paste this into Live, which is clearly sending something (according to the dispatcher, anyway), but I've only gotten it working twice, and when adding a second parameter (from another track in Live) to modulate Resolume, the first one stopped. So confusing!

Also should the "float param 0-1" part of the OSC address be included or not?

Oh, and on PC/Windows, so Osculator doesn't work for me.

No this is not part of the OSC address. What it means is that the OSC address need to be followed by a single (or double) float from 0 to 1.

So for instance, if you look at /composition/audio/volume/values (Float 0.0 - 1.0) range (-40.0 - 12.0)

• the OSC adress will be /composition/audio/volume/values
  the value will be a float from 0.0 to 1.0
  and the range will be from -40.0 to 12.0

so 0 will give you a value of -40 and 1 a value of 12. This would require some calculations on your part to derive the corresponding float but some softwares give you the option to normalize a range so that you can work with actual values.

As a reminder, the expected OSC syntax will be address/space/value

• /composition/audio/volume/values 0.5

Ah, that's very useful info, Oaktown! Thank you so much for making that clear. I'll do some more experimenting, and hopefully get the mapping eventually.
