plate-of-shrimp But now OSC and hardware knobs might not play nice together.

it's hard to make that work smoothly without encoders and many LEDs ...

plate-of-shrimp Well, maybe it was that it would be nice to read the layout file and generate code that could be dropped into a C++ project to provide objects to talk to using a small support library that is prepared for the generated code.

not sure I understand what you mean there

      not sure I understand what you mean there

      Um, drop the 'small support library' bit, that probably confuses things. The idea is only to extract things from the layout and make C++ representations of them for convenience. Say, that a fader that goes from 0-7 and is called '/coolness/factor' becomes some code you don't have to repetitively write to help wire things up. Using OscReciever and OscSender are easy, and writing a receive callback is easy, so it may not worth the effort.

      Added delay line.

      Exposed effects:
      - compressor
      - klingontone
      - overdrive
      - chorus
      - delay
      - reverb (only partially)
      Sustainer has a layout but the wiring is not done.

      Re: TouchOSC examples, how about something that is in line with the existing examples but replaces eg a pot with a TouchOSC screen? I could make that.

      Nice !
      Out of curiosity, what makes you prefer TouchOSC over the Bela GUI?

      I should try the GUI. I suppose that if it runs in a browser it is portable, in the physical sense? On a phone or tablet?
      I may move from TouchOSC to a hardware controller if I see one that does OSC.
      Also brings up the question of stomp switch pedalboards, have not looked to see what's out there.
      I also got Trills in the mail recently...

        This video showing the screens came out not so well, but I hope it gives a sense.

        I'll record something with sound but it's a little too early here for lots of noise.

        plate-of-shrimp suppose that if it runs in a browser it is portable, in the physical sense? On a phone or tablet?

        yes! although I must say that your TouchOSC solution looks very good already.

        plate-of-shrimp a hardware controller if I see one that does OSC.

        nice, do they exist?

        plate-of-shrimp sound is bit high in the mix.

        indeed, but cool video anyhow

              I know there are MIDI boards out there. I played with a Behringer FCB1010 using a USB-Midi converter in Rakarrack on a laptop. It would probably take some coding to pipe the USB-Midi device into Bela, but if you got that working then it would open up a lot of possibilities for HW controllers.

              Another idea i have tossed around is I have an Acer Spin5, which is plenty of screen to support a nice control interface, and is trivial to get MIDI messages through the standard Alsa driver. The control interface including control to a HW MIDI controller via USB in the laptop could send messages to Bela via OSC.

              I would think a tablet with a USB port could be used in the same way. For that matter a Raspberry pi could be used to bridge the MIDI->USB->Network interface and then you could turn any HW MIDI controller into a HW->OSC controller.

              Well there's some brain dump 😉 .
