Adding OSC (Open Sound Control)
Posted: 29 Feb 2016, 01:46
OSC (Open Sound Control) is a messaging protocol that was developed to be a better MIDI, but it has applications far beyond music.
I saw an earlier feature request about MIDI that was deemed out-of-scope.
OSC might be as well, but maybe not because, as with XPlane , it uses UDP for messaging. And the message syntax looks somewhat similar. So LuaMacros might already have stuff in place that can be reapplied for OSC.
I appreciate that adding any new feature usually ends up being non-trivial, so if I wanted to add this feature myself where would I start?
Thanks, LuaMacros is quite slick.
My aim is to use it for music production, not gaming.
