Ultralite Mk4 - http API works. Does it support OSC?

Post by a23455777753 »

I have successfully sent requests from a Windows command line to my mk4 such as

curl --data "json={\"value\":1}" <ip>:1280/0001f2xxxxxxxxxx/datastore/mix/main/0/matrix/mute

Which mutes the main mix.

I am now trying to map a fader in TouchOSC, but it is not working.

I can see the OSC sent out from TouchOSC in Reaper and see entries like this
/0001f2xxxxxxxxxx/datastore/mix/main/0/matrix/fader [f] 1.503001

The Mk4 does not respond to these though. Does it support OSC?

thanks!

Bump.
Anyone managed to send OSC to the Ultralite Mk4? Thanks!

Hi,

I could find very little information about OSC or API control over the Motu Ultralite mk4.
AVB series mentions it but could the mk4 work the same?

My Motu is also on port 1280. I'm trying to get the control of the 6 analog line input trimers, but no success at all.

I'm curious if you managed something else than than the mute function on the main mix?

Cheers!

I have almost no skills in programming tho but seems like it is doable.

Hope it helps!

Hi, just spotted your reply.

Yes I have some batch files that change the mapping between mixer inputs and physical inputs. This is so that I can play band recordings back through the mixer so we can check levels.

I was able to map a MIDI control surface fader to a mixer fader, but I was triggering a CURL command prompt each time the fader moved, which was not very efficient.

It really needs someone to write a little listener that attaches to a MIDI port and converts it to MOTO JSON.

I can write the mapping logic, but don't have the surrounding knowledge to write the web app.
