I was wondering about this the other day - is
there no OSC 'standard'
for how to declare note-ons, offs, etc?
If OSC really is to become a MIDI replacement, there's needs to be an
explicitly defined standard that says "this is how a note is triggered"
AFAIK in the beginning it was never meant as a midi replacement, but
should -in opposite to midi- not make any assumptions on the musical
meaning of the data being sent.
so if I'm writing a osc sequencer, is the best plan to leave the mapping open
for the user to modify?
however, an "official" way of encapsulating
midi in osc would maybe
push especially some commercial developers to osc, but i guess the
CNMAT folks don't want to have it in their official spec.
simple midi messages are supported as a type in osc, but you'd have to write
your server to pick them up.
