CueMix Control with Ipad and OSC

[Gruntos]

Hello All,

I have been using DAW HD remote on my IPAD for some time and designed my own control screen which controls the basic functions in CueMix Sliders, mute/solo busses and Multi Bus Control.

When MOTU announced the new OSC app I the reviews suggested I can control all of the functions like EQ and dynamics which is missing from the DAW Remote, so I got the app, updated the windows drivers and struggled with the installation procedure of PD.extended but managed to set up the IPAD and using the instructions and I can send and receive data from the computer to the IPAD and Vice Versa. So all is good and I haev a working connection.

I also managed to load the MOTU CueMixFX-mk3.touchosc screen into the IPAD using the Sync control.

The problem is I can control the IPAD from CueMix but not CueMix from the IPAD.
On the PC in the PD Console I see messages being received from the IPAD when I move a slider. For Example:

osc: /bin/fvEB+0/fvInCS+0/cdf 0.32598
osc: /bin/fvEB+0/fvInCS+0/cdf 0.323529
osc: /bin/fvEB+0/fvInCS+0/cdf 0.322304

etc.. but nothing moves on the CueMix screen

Moving a Slider on the CueMix I see the Ipad slider move.

None of the other sliders or controls are being received by Cuemix

I can see in the Control Surfaces menu the TouchOSC shows my IPAD.

Has anyone else had this problem or has anyone got it working propperly?

Regards

Bob

I'm seeing pretty much the same problem, except I'm running CueMix FX on a Mac:

• When I move controls in CueMix FX, TouchOSC updates its display accordingly.
  When I move controls in TouchOSC, nothing changes in CueMix FX.

I'd love to get this working, and would appreciate any insight or diagnostic suggestions.

I have posted a problem with MOTU they came back to me and said they had sent it off to the developers.

I think that means Dont hold your breath

[mariusm]

Agreed. Meanwhile I found that Osculator sees the messages from TouchOSC just fine, so CueMix FX is the likely culprit.

I figured this out. I discovered that CueMix FX is listening on UDP port 59617, not the default port 8000. It might be the same on your system, or it might vary over time.

On a Mac you can find what port CueMix FX is using by running this command:

Code: Select all

my-mac$ lsof -c CueMix | grep UDP
CueMix    1933 myname    7u    IPv4 0xb5ab9825df8b68ed       0t0      UDP *:59617

The number on the end of the output of that command gives the information we want.

On Windows I think you use netstat or similar, it's been a few years since I've done such a thing.

Anyway once I figured that out, I went into TouchOSC and configured "Port (outgoing)" to 59617 and now everything works! YAY!

Worked for me, brilliant... thanks.

(The port's also listed on the the Configure OSC device screen.)

years later I'm having this issue , how to run this in terminal for instance "

my-mac$ lsof -c CueMix | grep UDP
CueMix 1933 bobcosMacPro$ 7u IPv4 0xb5ab9825df8b68ed 0t0 UDP *:59617

changed "myname" to my machine
anything else ? still no luck , close with one way communication but missing the UDP my MacPro is using with CueMix I gagterh ?

update : next day I return to the studio and everything just works... oh ? I should restart more often I'm assuming lol ... editing the V1.0 API to include like 18 or 19 channels , on the touchOSC CueMixFxII using the newer editor touchOSC not touchOSCMk1
it's been done before but those links have now expired nothing lasts forever in the Wild West ....

Mk1 you say ... that logic still baffles me ...

Hexler ... 'hey we've got a new version of touchOSC " Oh yeah what's it called ... check this out

We've decided to call it touchOSC ...
Wait that's what the old one was called , confusing ?
Oh no we've taken care of that , the old one is going to be referred to as touchOSC Mk1 so that will solve the confusion.

Why rename the new one when we can simply rename the old one and refer the new one as the old one once was , yes that's brilliant !

slightly off topic or am I ?
