thanks for replying. Do you know if float numbers normally have the two decimal places? I was thinking that I could change the slider value from 1 to 100 to between 0 and 1 and then multiply by 100. If that was the case, would I have to use a number box, or could i just multiply the $1 variable by 100?

thanks

ok after watching the videos a couple of dozen times, i FINALLY managed to get a patch to pretty much work except for some minor quirks

1. The disconnect doesn't work, and the only way to close the ports is to completely reboot, otherwise for some reason if i have to load the patch a second time, it tries to open the port a second time i am guessing

2; The volume sliders go directly from 1 to 100. I am guessing this is because a floating point number is generated, and the program needs a whole number between 1 and 100

Also I was wondering just for my own curiosity, if there was a more efficient way to do what i wrote

thanks in advance

Does sendOSC need some kind of parameters? i have managed to use routeOSC to get the OSC message I need to send to my program, but somehow i am missing something really obvious.

heree's what I tried

dumpOSC 10001
routeOSC /qup

If I stick a print after this the correct osc message is printed to the screen, so what am I missing *putting sendOSC after doesn't work

can anyone suggest a resource that I could go to to learn about Pure Data and OSC messages, how to route them etc.

I am so completely clueless it's not even funny.

I can't even seem to figure out how to write a basic patch to take the data I am sending from TouchOSC and route the values to the karaoke program that I am using.

I also need to learn how to send the values that my karaoke program is sending back to TouchOSC but one thing at a time
