MKtlElementCollective | SuperCollider 3.13.0 Help

Description

sc version: 3.9dev MKtlElementCollective contains elements whose values the corresponding device sends (or receives) in grouped form: For example, an OSC device which sends all its button states in a single OSC message with a message name and n values. Very likely one never needs to make an MKtlElementCollective by hand; it is created automatically when a description file defines a group of elements as a collective. For code examples, see How_to_create_a_description_file_for_OSC esp. the sections on collective input and output.// This example of a device creates one. // touchOSC is a smartphone app that can send accelerometer data: t = MKtl(\tosca, "touchosc-simple1"); t.trace.gui; // here is the collective: t.collectivesDict[\accel]; // here is the OSCFunc that receives the three-value message: t.device.oscFuncDictionary[\accel].dump; // change the address so we can test-send from SC's address: t.device.source.hostname_("127.0.0.1").port_(57120); // now send osc values NetAddr.localAddr.sendMsg('/accxyz', 3.0.rand2, 3.0.rand2, 3.0.rand2); // test setting the collective value directly: t.collectivesDict[\accel].value = [1.0.rand, 1.0.rand, 1.0.rand ]; // see the desc file for how the collective was defined: t.desc.openFile;
