Hi all.

I'm having a little bit of difficulty getting my monome 40h to work with PD.
I have looked at various forums on this but still no real help. I have downloaded
monomeserial and max 5 runtime.
(I also had mapd but I have spoken to the guys at monome, they said it is depreciated)

now I can get my OS X to recognize the monome, the led's work etc but I don't now how to input into PD. all I'm looking to do is assign monomes buttons to various bangs and sliders, much the same way as any other midi controller.

any Ideas

thanks

Have you gone to Media>Midi Settings off the menu bar, and set the monome as your input/output device?

Good luck, and keep well ~ Shankar

Yes. I have.

I have selected both monomeserial 1 and max/runtime as inputs (sperately of course, not the same time.)
however when I go to test the midi in media> test audio / midi still no input.

I've actually realised that the monome works on OSC but I do not know how to configure this in the start up path. do I need to download an external OSC library
or is it already in PD.

when I type in [send OSC] the box pops up simple however when I type [dump OSC 8080] I'm greeted with the red dotted line. any ideas.

there's no space in that objectname -> [dumpOSC 8080]

Check out weng's axiome patch:

This patch is designed to work with a monome 40h, so having a look at the pertinent parts might be quite edifying....

cheers,
ernie

hey.

got midi to work no problem now however still no luck with OSC
Pd sees [sendOSC] but not [dumpOSC] I have tried copying an external OSC library
into the package contents but still no luck

any Ideas

the best way to learn how to use the monome's OSC capabilities is to download the PD OSC howto from the monome site: it's a really useful overview of what you need to set up to send OSC messages to & from the 40h:

second to last on the list above!

also, i built a patch routing OSC messages from my 64 to various MIDI notes and CC sliders, for controlling Ableton Live. If you have any questions then feel totally free to send them my way and i'll see if i can help out...
