[LAU] OSC - where to start?

[Harry Van Haaren]

Hey James,

I'd advise starting with Python, and a library called "liblo". It has a
dead-simple function

ardoursPortNumber = 3819    # usually anyway!
liblo.send( liblo.Address( ardoursPortNumber ), '/ardour/command/here',
parameter, parameter )

<shameless self promotion>
I wrote a blog post about it a while ago, still relevant although I belive
ardour has more OSC
functionality in the mean time. Here's the link:

Cheers, -Harry
