Step through columns with one OSC track

Hi,

I am looking for a way to trigger a column in resolume via OSC using just one OSC-track. I.e. the int-value of the track would be the column number to trigger. Just like it can be done via MIDI-mapping.

Am I missing something, or is this not possible?

I want to use OSCseq to step through a (larger) number of columns, or at least through the clips in a layer. Using a separate OSC-track per column/clip seems a bit bloaty...

Thanks for any hints and/or ideas

resolume column triggering is done with
/trackN/connect int 0 or 1
messages where N is the column number

if OSCseq can send that message in one track then you are in luck, if not, have a look at this topic

I use Vezer (http://vezerapp.hu/) to do what you are trying to do and it's similar to the syntax Ravensc gave you.

I set up an OSC value track as follows: /track$/connect where $ is an integer from 1 to N and I'm able to keyframe column triggers by changing $ and Vezer will send the following OSC commands which will trigger the column since all it take is 0 or 1:
  • ***************
    /track3/connect : <OSCVal i 3>
    ***************
    /track2/connect : <OSCVal i 2>
    ***************
    /track1/connect : <OSCVal i 1>
    ***************
    /track0/connect : <OSCVal i 0>

As an FYI, Vezer is MacOS only but you can control any OSC program(s) via a network!

I tested it last month controlling Resolume on a PC and it worked great via a 1Gb network!

You can also easily control Vezer using custom-made controllers in TouchOSC or Lemur.

I love it too! I have used OSC on many shows and I must say that it's pretty reliable and easy to use so overall that works great.

The things is until there is a good all around solution that serves all my needs I'm stuck having to design these multilayered systems! But I know that R5 will have everything I need including a timeline, OSC controller, cueing system, etc... so these days of layered OSC are almost over, right? ;)

Yes! It will also walk the dog, make a damn fine espresso and braid your hair just the way you like it!

Thanks Joris, that's awesome! I knew you guys were paying attention to my needs but there's only one small catch, I don't have any hair, so can I choose another option? ;)
