Cannot view incoming OSC messages: "Port already in use"

[richddt]

This seems like an incredibly basic setup issue, I hope someone can help with a quick fix!
I have OSC messages broadcasting on my network from a custom controller. I can see them all just fine in Protokol. However, when I close Protokol and open OSCulator to view them instead, it cannot view them because the Port (9999) is "already in use"
See attached pics.

Is this a basic configuration failure? Please help!

I'm looking for a simple way to turn a threshold value from these OSC input streams (say, at the number 20) into a MIDI note on message for Ableton. And also to use them as CC's (prob a mix of both depending on the input).

Thanks!

Hello,

I am not sure why port 9999 would stay open, but you can check in Terminal:

camille@gray-matter ~ % sudo lsof -Pi4
...
OSCulator 10839 camille 3u IPv4 0xf8bb8a4707ef54dd 0t0 UDP *:9999
OSCulator 10839 camille 18u IPv4 0xf8bb8a38a48d9475 0t0 TCP *:9999 (LISTEN)
...

Here OSCulator is listening on port 9999 for both protocols (tcp and udp).
You mileage may vary

Best,
Camille
