X32 solo with OSC

[Patrick Spadrille]

I'm searching the OSC commands to control the solo buttons of my Digital mixer fromQlab. I have some some OSC commands to control the X32 from Qlab with OSC and it works very well. But I don't find the OSC command for the channels's solo buttons. Does anybody know it?

Hi friend

Could you share the OSC commands that you have?

I am very interested in working my X32 with QLab

Thanks in advance

Here they are ! If you find a way to control Solo with this, please share.

 Those are for the overall solo bus. It sounds like he's looking for control of the solo button of each channel.

That is available at: /-stat/solosw/[id] 

The appendix on that document that you shared that shows how OSC Commands correspond to the physical buttons on the mixer is very useful for questions like this.

/-action/clearsolo can also be a nice function to have

I'm not sure i understand how to use this command : /-stat/solosw/[id]. How can i use it to, for example, enable the solo button for channel 5? 

[Patrick Spadrille]

I think this command is to obtain the status of the solo button, not to modify it. Maybe there is just no OSC command for that action. Too bad for me !

That is not correct. You can set solo with this command. I've done it successfully in the past, and can find mentions online of others doing the same. 

I'm admittedly rusty with Qlab OSC; most of my OSC stuff has been in other contexts, and I know that the X32 OSC has some formatting quirks that might require some experimentation or modification. But some variation of this (turning solo on channel 1) should work:

/-stat/solosw/01 ,i 1 

Searching online I found at least one report of an X32-Edit app bug causing the app to not reflect use of this command correctly, even when the actual console IS reflecting it properly. So if you're monitoring your changes using the X32-Edit app that might be why you're not seeing a change. Look at the actual console, or monitor with other OSC commands like /-stat/solo.

Thank you for your input. I made some new tests with different messages and i finally found the one that works : /-stat/solosw/01 1.

I hope that will help someone else one day.
