Hi! i was wandering if anyone could help me with something,
I'm trying to connect modul8 (2,5) to a wiring card that was some photocells and switchers wired up in a protoboard.

I'm using a patcher in max/msp to send the messages, and the osc (global) module to receive them...
The modul8 scrip Output prints the data, but I just can not make the key map or midi map recognize this messages so I can manipulate the opacity layers with this electronic devices...

do you know if its possible.. if there is some kind of tutorial or anything that tells how to do this??


thanks!!!

yes, it's a bit tricky, the documentation of this module is in its information. You must customize your OSC message like this: /md8key/[modul8 keword]/[layer Position]

An OSC message that changes the alpha channel to 0.5 of the selected layer:
['md8key/ctrl_layer_alpha/0','f',0.5]

hey sigma6 THANK U so much !!
a last question: were exactly do I put this code.. I have never found the script editor of modul8 .. normally just the script Output

this is the type of message that must be sent by your osc device, in your case the max msp patch. I don't know how you pipe the messages from your controllers in max but if you manage to translate them into the pattern needed by modul8.
No need of changing anything in modul8!
