Hi!
The mrpeach library in pd-extended will be your friend here. It
includes better objects for dealing with OSC than vanilla PD.
This is what I've started to look now using pdextended.
Also, you may want to consider using Control for Android rather than
touchOSC. Seems to be easier to customize layouts.

Yes, I know it, seems to do what I need, i.e. layout customization but that app runs quite slow in my android device, that's why I was trying touchOSC, but yes, Control seems to do what I need.
One more thing - I was wondering if you'd like to share some details
as I've been trying to achieve some of the same things. You said you
were using non-mixer to host plugins? Did you mean LV2 and DSSI as
well? I thought non-mixer only hosted ladspa.
Sorry If I confused you:
non-mixer just for LADSPA.
Ingen for LV2.
jack-dssi-host for DSSI
If that's the case, I'm
curious, how do you intended to get your OSC routed to LV2 or DSSI
plugins?
I never used OSC to control LV2 under Ingen, that's something that I need to test but according to what is expressed in the documentation [1] it is possible.
For DSSI I was thinking to send direct OSC message to the host, using the same message format used by the GUI to communicate with the host.
Preliminary tests using dssi-vst (loading a VST instrument) and nekobee were satisfactory.
Also, I haven't looked hard at all, but is the OSC interface
in non-mixer documented anywhere?
A final possibility is using falkTXs Carla plugin host which appears
to have a full OSC interface. Again, though, this doesn't seem to be
documented.
cheers
