Hello everyone,

I am new to pure data since reading up on TouchOSC and decided to give the two programs a go. I downloaded a pre made PD patch from 'http://hexler.net/docs/touchosc-setup-other' and found that with a few adjustments I was able to control the parameters in PD via TouchOSC on my iPhone. PD's input and output device is set to IAC driver in MIDI settings and the IAC driver is online. The TouchOSC layout used is named 'Simple'. I have attached the adjusted working patch bellow.

That part was pretty straight forward. The part that I am now struggling with is getting the exact same connection after creating a new PD patch and my own TouchOSC layout made with the TouchOSC editor.

I have used the exact same implications yet I am unable to control the faders in PD using my phone.

Could anyone possibly tell me where I am going wrong? How is it possible for one patch to connect when the other almost identical patch does nothing.

Any advice would be highly appreciated!

you can open port 8000 only once on your mashine.
so, try another port.

Thanks for the reply Gromit. I gave it a go but still nothing.

The patch that I am having trouble with is now attached. Can you see anything wrong with it?

Cheers

Your not working patchs works !
but with port 8000 because my touchosc device is configured with that port.
I tryed with mix 16 preset patch. so try with that. if it works the problem is in the touch osc editor side of the project.
that's my guess

Oh blimey you're right! It seems to work with all presets, which I find extremely frustrating! What on earth am I doing wrong in the TouchOSC editor I wonder?

The OSCroute object box has all of the correct names listed in relation to what the parameters are named on the editor so I am well and truly clueless.

Any further input would be great

I've been looking in to this for hours and still no luck. Can anyone see something wrong with the TouchOSC editor layout? Here it is.

yes the problem is in the osc objects names. you have to put /1 before the name nfor scene 1 and /2 for scene two and so on... I usually put the automatic function that gives the correct naming

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. So where I've put:

'OSCroute /rotary1 /rotary2 /fader1 /fader2 /rotary3 /rotary4 /rotary5 /fader3 /fader4'

I should have actually put:

'OSCroute /1/rotary3 /2/rotary5 /1/fader3 /1/fader4 /1/rotary6 /1/rotary10 /1/rotary11 /1/fader5 /1/fader10', which is what the parameters were automatically named in the TouchOSC editor?

I have just tried this and still I get nothing. Or have I misunderstood what you are saying?

Thanks for your replies I really appreciate it!

that one should work
cheers

sorry for the bad explanation. I guess the problem is in the touchosc custom layout.
The pd patch is ok.
I attached a picture to explain my previous message. If you compare a touchosc preset layout to your own you'll notice the difference.

Thank you so much for the help guys! I now understand where I was going wrong! I would have thanked you sooner but I've been busy with work.

Cheers!
