Intro

SceneForge includes powerful bindings for Open Sound Control messages, which, when properly configured, allow you to control various properties of your scene from remote devices on your local network.   This is useful for rapid iteration in an on-set environment.

SceneForge operates on port 7500 on your machine, so keep that in mind when using other applications at the same time.

Using OSC In SceneForge

You can activate OSC and setup SceneForge for listening by opening up the mobile connection window in main toolbar of the screen.

This is where you can setup the mobile app connection as well if you'd like.  

To enable it, all you have to do is click the "Init" button and SceneForge will begin listening for messages.

Click that button again to close the connection.

You need another OSC-enabled application to actually send the messages.  SceneForge just acts as a listener.

OSC Bindings

The following message addresses can be used.  All messages begin with a prefix of "/sceneforge/".

All messages are lowercase for consistency.
