Access OSC messages with Lua?

Getting Stuff Done Lua Scripting
#1

Is there a way to get OSC messages sent to Ardour via lua scripting?

I want to send arbitrary OSC messages to Ardour and then automate plugins, faders, panning etc. with the message.

You don’t need Lua for that. OSC already allows to change plugin parameters, faders and panners.

see The Ardour Manual - Open Sound Control (OSC)

Hi @x42,
Same question, different use case from me:
I want to query an Midas M32 mixer (or any midas or behringer with OSC) during live recording to automatically set channel names and record state based on the mixers channel names and mute state. I can’t tell the mixer to change its protocol. I think I’d need to register custom osc addresses (like /ch/01/config/name) within ardour to react to the packages from the mixer, no?

I can send OSC just fine, there are examples out there. But I don’t think I saw the receiving part yet?

Have a great day and thank you!
Vivien

Only Ardour’s OSC control surface can receive OSC. There is no scripting support for ctrl surfaces.

I thought so, thanks for clearing up!
