OSC/PILOT app

OSC
1

I’ve stumbled upon this new OSC app, and want to sare with you.

OSC/PILOT is a deadmau5’s (Joel Thomas Zimmerman) OSC controller.

Price: USD 49.99.
Free trial: Yes, fully functional except that it cannot load or save projects.
OS: Windows 8.1 and Windows 10
Download: https://oscpilot.com/pages/downloads
Unfortunately, this v0.96 isn’t stable on my Win 8.1, although they sell it:

I’ll try it on Windows 10, as well to see are there any errors and how it works with Gig Performer.

Just to share.

Did you try the free open source Mrmr OSC controller ? (http://ecumedesjours.com/Mrmr/)
for the moment only available for iOS (https://apps.apple.com/app/mrmr-osc-controller/id294296343), but as it is open source one could decide to port is to another platform…

No, I didn’t, I’m more into Windows and Android. :slight_smile:
Have you tried it?

No, I didn’t. But as you reviewed many OSC apps recently and as you seem to go on this way, I wanted to ask as it seems to be very promising (UDP & TCP based OSC and open source).

Thanks for the recommendation! :slight_smile:
I must admit I like OSC feature very much in GP. Even my kids like to tap on the buttons and sliders when I play home. It’s fun :slight_smile:

There will be a change of my course, however. Stay tuned :slight_smile:

Looks cool and reasonably straight forward to use.

I don’t see anything off hand that Open Stage Control doesn’t do, though, and I like that Open Stage Control is cross platform, free, and has a very responsive developer and forum.

Of course, Open Stage Control could use a pretty homepage with a good tutorial video on it.

As could pretty much every open source product!

Ive tried this it on Windows 8.1 & it’s still unstable.

There are a few unique features like the faders which can be calibrated to revert back to the starting position you specify & you can modify the speed & smoothing of the animation. But gig performer can do this with scripts.

I have not purchased Gig performer & I feel that’s it’s disrespectful to request or expect others to assist with my queries. But gig performer has so much more potential which I feel is overlooked.

I would like to engage with a developer in private if they can contact me or provide a contact address.

Feel free to ask :wink:

I sent you a private message. What did you need?

Hi guys,

I will bring this up again as I would like to try some OSC (for my Guitar player setting).
I am on a WIN10 PC with GP4 and would like to remote control some sliders with an IPad on which mrmr is running.
OSC is enabled in GP, the slider I want to control I named
“Knob1” in GP as well at mrmr.
Unfortunately nothing happens when I move the slider (on each direction).
Both devices conected to the same network.
Attached my settings

Can’t check, this is iOS only it seems: ‎Mrmr OSC controller on the App Store

This is what a slider sent out by default for me:

@Flodder personally, I wouldn’t bother with these free ‘project’ apps. If you’re interested in using OSC with GP, just jump straight in with TouchOSC.

Just wanted to give the free version a try, but I guess its better to invest the 10€…

What is the difference between TouchOSC Mk1 and theTouchOSC?

17

All :wink:

18

If you want to try something for free, you have Open Stage Control and OSCAR.

Both applications are covered on the Gig Performer blog. :slight_smile:

TouchOSC works well! Thanks!

Can somebody tell me how I make OSCTouch changing it panel if I change a Rackspace?
I guess I need to send a Midi to OSC (?), but what to set in OSCTouch that it will react?
