From version 3.1.0 Crossfade Loop Synth can be controlled via the Open Sound Control

Two settings control what port the plug-in uses to listen on for OSC com-

Received OSC Commands

In the documentation below, OSC parameters are prefixed with a string to indicate their
type, as follows:

b - boolean

All the examples assume that the plug-in is listening at address 10.0.0.1:6001.

/ping s:returnUrl s:returnPath

Responds by sending a message back to the returnUrl and returnPath with the parameters

E.g.

/ping osc.udp://10.0.0.2:7000 “/foo”

replies to 10.0.0.2:7000 with

/foo osc.udp://10.0.0.1:6001 “Crossfade Loop Synth 3.1.0”

/set i:param f:value

Sets the value of parameter ‘param’ to ‘value’.
