Thread: Catalyst v4.2 m257 -

  1. #11
    osc is extremely specialised - there is nothing standard about it -
    so it depends on what people ask for-
    i have used it with oscemote and iphone

    the text colour - looks like safari is not doing something correct with the default css style.

    Go to the preferences and you can change how many layers and mixes you want. Then re-launch the application.

    Osc

    beyond cat seeing OSCmote in my iphone what can you actually get cat to do with it? Can't see a way to patch the input to anything. It would be great to be able to fire off a few presets and control mix settings for a neatly made app?

    Mrmr is a free iphone app that does OSC. You can create multiple pages of anything on them.. I downloaded it but haven't made any template pages yet but it would be cool to see what commands are mapped or maybe an interface in cat that would allow customization of the command structure for use with that program. Just a thought.

    Hello Richard will there be a chance of implementing mixes intensity on a update soon? Also a means of controlling the screen settings would be great if this is implemented as with LED screens you need to be ontop of the gamma setup, or you incur the wrath of sparkles.

    Although the full mix controls via DMX are great I tend to use presets for all of those elements as it saves so much time, compared to dialing on a desk.

    Over the summer, doing so many festivals with TV companies filming, it would be great to have a means of stomping back the intensity, and maintain how all layers work together without having transparency cropping up, and still have the overall normal LED screen setting stay the same for certain key moments. Nothing worse than having far too much LED flare on a well composed image. Plus we never get a chance to line up the screens with racks engineers, on the broadcast trucks, and having the juggling act of starting in daylight and finishing the show in the dark.

    you can- OSC is such a wierd and open protocol- which leads to all sorts of ways of doing things.
    everything has to be customised
    there are no standards-

    ... so you need to ask me directly .... what you want to do-

    indeed. you arent the only one to ask
    but if you 'dim' in mixes dont you come up against the other problem with LED much sooner- limited colour sampling resolution - at low intensity values?

    the transparency is something that is a problem

    maybe i just thought a way around it.
