![]() ![]() Some common software users pair with TouchOSC are OSCulator (macOS) and Bome's MIDI Translator (Windows). We are aware of the limitations of TouchOSC (such as internal controls modifying/controlling each other) and intend to address this in the future, but until then there is almost always a workaround for most situations. Note that TouchOSC will not forward incoming messages back out, so for instance if you send TouchOSC a value to move a fader, TouchOSC will not send that message back out (this was designed like this to prevent feedback loops causing crashes, such as TouchOSC sends MIDI to a DAW, which sends MIDI back to TouchOSC, which sends it back to the DAW, etc. When you move the fader, it will send the MIDI value to Voicemeeter to adjust the fader in Voicemeeter, which will send that value back to TouchOSC, which will then update the label. The easiest way to set this up would be to have the label and fader assigned to the same MIDI parameter, and also have Voicemeeter send the same parameter back to TouchOSC (which may depend on Voicemeeter's capabilities so make sure to check the manual/reference for it). What needs to happen is an external message needs to update the label. For instance, in this case you want to have a fader update a label - you cannot have this happen natively, even if you have the same MIDI parameters assigned to both the fader and the label. It should be noted that you cannot connect objects within TouchOSC, without using external messages coming in from another source. When using MIDI this will only update values if sending OSC messages to labels you can also send a single string of text (so OSC can send text and numbers to labels, whereas MIDI will only send values). Labels do not send messages, as they are not an input in the sense of a button or knob, but they will respond to OSC/MIDI messages in a similar manner as other objects - using our example above, if you were to send a message from your DAW to a label assigned to MIDI Channel 1 CC#7, when TouchOSC receives this message it will update the label to show the value it received. ![]() Additionally, if the DAW outputs MIDI Channel 1 CC#7 to the TouchOSC Bridge, then that fader will respond accordingly and move to the position of the value it was sent. For instance, if you have a fader set to MIDI Channel 1 CC#7, you can map that to a fader in a DAW.
