<br>Hey James,<br><br>I'd advise starting with Python, and a library called "liblo". It has a dead-simple function<br><br>ardoursPortNumber = 3819 # usually anyway!<br>liblo.send( liblo.Address( ardoursPortNumber ), '/ardour/command/here', parameter, parameter )<br>
<br><shameless self promotion><br>I wrote a blog post about it a while ago, still relevant although I belive ardour has more OSC<br>functionality in the mean time. Here's the link:<br><a href="http://harryhaaren.blogspot.com/2009/12/tut-6-ardour-control-using-osc-python.html">http://harryhaaren.blogspot.com/2009/12/tut-6-ardour-control-using-osc-python.html</a><br>

<br>
I want to start using OSC to see what can be done with it.<br>
<br>
What options are there for sending OSC messages?<br>
<br>
For instance, what can I use to type OSC messages (or assign them to<br>
keystrokes) and then send them?<br>
<br>
Just something that is a good general purpose program and not<br>
specialized to OSC messages for a particular application so that I can<br>
start playing with it.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
James<br>
<br>
P.S. Prompted by a GUI freeze in Ardour and me wondering if it would<br>
respond to OSC.<br>
