Hi,

I am trying to send float data from Pure Data to processing. After searching around I see a lot of methods using [sendOSC], but i am on Vanilla and don't have that. I tried [netsend] but haven't had any luck with that.

in Max I use a number box(sending float data) to [prepend /ramp1] connected to [udpsend 127.0.0.1 12000] to send a value called ramp1 on network channel 12000.

Does anyone know how to do this in Pd?

Thanks, Nick

@nicnut this seems to work

Hi @Balwyn,

thanks for the reply. I used your method and I can see the messages in the Terminal. (I'm on a Mac) and I can see the messages coming in the Pd window using netreceive. But I can't get them into processing. I'm trying to quit applications and restart them but still not getting any results.
I am getting data in from Max, so I know the Procession part is working, just no data from Pd. I think I will keep messing with the formatting of the netsend.

thanks, let me know if you have any suggestions.

OK I think I got it. I had to format it like this. I got this and modified it from the examples that are in the docs folder.

@nicnut Hi again
I have never used Processing, so I downloaded it added a udp library via the contributions manager and did some tests with my Pd patch and all it worked fine
The sketch folder also has a Pd patch udp.pd.

You may or may not be using this library though!
I thought this may be of interest

The example sketch also contained these comments

@Balwyn, Wow. Good to know! I got my patch working now, but I'll try out the upd library.

I'm using OscP5 library in Processing

Thank you!
