Using OSC? Is it possible?

[qqwy]

Hello there, everyone,

I am simply wondering, because I have a few controllers that send data through the Open Sound Control(OSC) protocol. Is there a way right now in FlowStone to catch and use these values?

most likely yes! the ruby inside flowstone should be able to do so!

here is a couple of implementations of osc stuff in ruby! https://github.com/aberant/osc-ruby
https://github.com/maca/ruby-osc ,

thats as much help i can give you m8 as i am clueless then it comes to ruby, but maybe some of the more learned ppl here might be able to point you in the right direction!

Our boffins from over at SM land are here as well and they are feverishly learning ruby as we speak

Yes, but not now, with external libraries, the reason can be found in this post.
But the support is working on it.
except if the extensions are written in pure ruby, then you will have no problems,
extensions in pure ruby usually are suffixed with name-pr.

Technically speaking OSC is nothing more than simple UDP datagrams. So in theory the built-in primitives "Network Server" and "Network Client" should do the job (not tested yet)

Thanks for your replies. I haven't tried the built-in network server and client yet, but I will shortly. I'll keep you updated .
