OSC

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

Components

OSC has the following Resonite Components:

• Component:OSC_Receiver - Receive data into Resonite from OSC
• Component:OSC_Sender - Send data out of Resonite from OSC
• Component:OSC_Value - Expose an OSC value as a regular component field
• Component:OSC_Field - Store an OSC value in another component's value field

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.
