I bought that book Pragmatic Programmer and like the concept of publish/subscribe described there to handle asynchronous processes pushing and pulling data from a common database type thing. But I don’t know Python yet and am wondering if there is some simple way to achieve something like that in touch designer without scripting. For example, I would like to use many different controllers, some MIDI, some iPad touchOSC and have them all work independently in my program if I swap from one to another to push data to something like a table DAT or similar structure set up with control variables, then pull that data quickly out to any tox programs running asynchronously. (see attached)
controller_in.tox (2.0 KB)Q1: Are there any simple tutorials on methods like this that don’t need a lot of scripting?
Q2: Or should I stick with routing all control data around with OSC?
Q3: In my little example tox I just want to use sliders s1-s5 and toggles 1-4 etc in many different internal programs I can switch between. Best methods for sharing common interface to such data?
many thanks for any hints.
