OSC requires the use of third party applications to send/receive data beyond Resonite, please use your best judgement when downloading 3rd party applications.

Open Sound Control(OSC) is a network protocol that allows software and hardware to send and receive data. It is traditionally used for controlling Sound related equipment such as DJ Equipment, Musical Instruments and Sliders/Faders.

However, OSC itself can be used for basically any purpose where you need to send structured data over the network. In Resonite, we're seeing this used for:

Haptics
Face and Eye Tracking
Macro Pads/Shortcut pads

Data

OSC Supports many data types, but Resonite supports:

Float
Double
Int
Long
String
Color
ColorX (Will convert to sRGB)
DateTime
Byte

Many OSC Applications send data purely as Floats.
