Re: 2 new messages in 1 topic - digest

Open Sound Control (OSC) appears to be a protocol for networked audio
collaboration.  It sounds interesting but I don't understand how it
might be used with baudline.  Could you provide some possible usage
examples? 

 

OSC will potentially allow Baudline to do 2 things, basically:

1. share measurements (distortions, peaks, etc http://www.baudline.com/manual/measurements.html#measurements) via UDP with other people/software in the network.

2.and or have the Baudline be controlled remotely, if its enables to listen to OSC messages,  coming from another software.

Im interested in number 1, that way i can get the value of the different measurements baudline provides directly into other software so to generate new sounds or alter video or 3d shapes in realtime...this just opens a wide area for playing.

im unsure if im clear, let me know if not.

tx! for replying

Thank you, now I understand how OSC can be used. Sharing measurement
values and remote controlling baudline seem like very useful things to
do. This isn't as good of a solution but did you know that you can
instruct baudline to output the measurement values to stderr? Check
out the -debugmeasure and -debugtimer command line options:

http://www.baudline.com/manual/options.html#debugmeasure

For example, using this stderr streaming method is how I created the
distortion variable frequency sweep plot shown here:

http://www.baudline.com/solutions/sine_distortion/index.html#frequency_effect

With the >& or |& shell operators you could redirect stderr to a fifo
or grab the data from a pipe and have an external program or script
work on the measurement data in real-time.
