Topic: Receiving OSC messages when an ARC is used.

I have an ARC attached to a UCX with TotalMix setup to receive/send OSC messages.

I've written a little app that controls TotalMix via OSC and it works nicely.  It also grabs the incoming messages from TotalMix in an attempt to keep its internal state up-to-date.

However, if I use the ARC to make adjustments, TotalMix doesn't send any OSC messages for those updates if if app hasn't made the corresponding page "active". 

So, is there a way to receive updates for ALL pages regardless of which one is currently "active"?

Thanks,

Leland

Not at this time. We are thinking about adding such a feature.

That'd be great!  (I know...no firm commitment or timeline ;-))  And just to make sure, it should also report changes a user may make within TotalMix itself, not just ones coming from the ARC.

An alternative would be to allow multiple clients to monitor different pages/busses, but I think I read in a different post that may be in the works as well.

I'd like to thank RME for providing the extensive OSC support.  It's THE reason we decided to buy the UCX.

In the 20 some odd years my wife (totally blind) has been using a PC, we've never found an audio interface (and we've tried many) that was completely accessible.  TotalMix itself isn't accessible, but with the OSC support I've been able to provide her access to all of the functionality she needs.  (I suspect I'll be adding more to the app as she realizes how much the UCX can do.  :-))

So, thanks RME!!!
