OSC encoder wheel button

Is there a way to simulate pushing down an encoder wheel with osc? I can turn it, (twist it, bop it, squeeze it, haha) min, max, and home with osc but I can't find a way to post the attribute to the command line other than clicking the header with a mouse.

I understand there are limits, and that osc won't be able to do all things. Am I missing something? Or could this be in the next feature update?

  • Are you trying to do a hardware OSC Encoder? if so, take a look at the GitHub experiment. github.com/.../OSCHardware
  • No, just software. I have everything except for the pushing down of the encoder, which puts the attribute in the command line and offers additional soft key options.
  • Collin,
    You would have to extract the parameter name that the encoder is controlling in your software in order to post it to the command line. Depending on how your encoder is setup this may or may not be easy.
  • You could try to see what OSC commands the wheel on the desk sends.

    One way of seeing what gets sent is fire up the diagnostic page - hold down tab key in 99 and then release tab.

    On that page you can then choose to show outgoing OSC and perhaps if you are lucky it will show you what the wheel sends when you push it. (I'm not near a console to try it at present and not quite sure I'm answering what you are asking for either actually)
