Hey folks!
So here's what I want to do: Ableton on one mac running Osculator sends a midi note bang-->Osculator on that machine. Osculator on that machine takes that midi note and sends an OSC message OUT to another machine running another instance of Osculator. Osculator on that second machine then takes that incoming osc message and spits out one midi bang to Pro Presenter running on machine b.
Seems simple enough, but I'm having one heck of a time getting this to work at all.
So Mac #1 (Ableton,) Say, I have it spit out note c-1 @ velocity 127, ch13 to IAC buss named Ableton-->Osculator. IAC buss is set as a midi input in Osculator (raw and interpreted selected.)
I bang the midi note, Osculator sees it pop up. I tell it to demux /midi/note/13 (pitch) so the specific note value shows up, then I can map "trigger," to my outgoing osc message. I create a new osc address w/ destination set to a specific device (select that second mac via nearby osc services dropdown or input manually the ip/open port for that device,) message is, for giggles: /Triggerthing number(1)
When I trigger that ableton midi note, the /Triggerthing message now pops up in osculator on machine b. I can map it to a cc, then map that cc to a second instance of ableton (as a test,) but when I go to fire the thing, it doesn't actually trigger.
If I manually bang my CC message or /Triggerthing on machine b, it definitely triggers, but it does not seem to be doing so from machine a.
What am I doing wrong here? I've tried every dang combination of messages and different machines, all with the same result.
