Hey guys,

perhaps a stupid question, but I cannot find any information on that.

I try to send data arrays to Lemur, but Lemur does not recognize them as valid OSC messages (no messages are received)

I tried various formats, started with the one that Lemur is sending out, such as
/someTag [ssffffi] "name" "name" someFloat someFloat someFloat someFloat someInteger

and then played around with variations, but no luck. Messages are sent to the correct IP (iPad) and the correct port (8000).

In the Lemur manual, there is only a note how to send single values and a reference is given to "an extended OSC workshop", which I don't find on the Lemur website. I read here on the forum that this workshop is actually given here:

http://www.jazzmutant.com/workshop_tutorialslist.php

but I cannot find any workshop/tutorial that is purely dedicated to OSC.

If someone could point out what the correct format is, I'd be very grateful :)

Thanks and cheers,
Dirk
Problem solved. OSCPack (C++ lib) is to blame, messages had no "propper" byte encoding according to the OSC specs. Surprisingly, the OSC tracker of Reaper could read them completely.

Thanks a lot for you reply ndivoyu. i checked out your website, amaaazing stuff! :)

Cheers,
Dirk
