OpenSoundControl (OSC) for Pd

A collection of Pd object classes for OSC-messages. These objects only convert between Pd-messages and OSC-messages (binary format), so you will need a separate set of objects that implement the transport (OSI-Layer 4), for instance [udpsend]/[udpreceive] for sending OSC over UDP.

Object classes

  • [packOSC]
    convert a Pd-message to an OSC (binary) message (useful if you want to transmit OSC over UDP or other protocols that have the concept of variable length packets)

  • [unpackOSC]
    convert an OSC (binary) message to a Pd-message (useful if you want to transmit OSC over UDP or other protocols that have the concept of variable length packets)

  • [routeOSC]
    route OSC-like Pd-messages according to the first element in the path

  • [pipelist]
    delay lists (useful if you want to respect timestamps)

  • [packOSCstream]
    convert a Pd-message to an OSC (binary) message suitable for streaming transport (useful if you want to transmit OSC over TCP/IP or a serial line)

  • [unpackOSCstream]
    convert an OSC (binary) message suitable for streaming transport to a Pd-message (useful if you want to transmit OSC over TCP/IP or a serial line)
