Hi I know this is a very simple question but I cant find any tutorials to work on , and there's hardly any examples ppl have done that are available, but I manage to send text characters, numbers or whatever to other IP addresses using 'send' in a message box and joining it to sendOSC but how do you send sound, I've a little osc~ set up where I can hear my own sound on my pc but I dont know what the object or message is to send it to another IP address, cheers for the help Adrian
yo,
to clarify, OSC stands for OpenSoundControl. it is not a protocol meant for sending audio. it sends control messages than can trigger lots of processes. one process that it could control would be audio.
so, a typical use of OSC would be a patch that accepts OSC commands to trigger different sounds, much like MIDI was once used to trigger different sounds (long ago... in a galaxy far, far away).
[osc~] and [OSC] are two completely different objects in Pd:
[osc~] is just a cosine wave oscillator.
[OSC] is part of the OpenSoundControl library. You can use it to send control messages using the OSC (OpenSoundControl) protocol.
if you indeed want to send audio signals over a network, you might consider a streaming audio server, or the [streamout~] and [streamin~] object in ggee (?).
sorry if this was talking down to anyone, but i felt like this should be explained...
