Default starter for ten. Dawosc template + issues

hi, ( edit see post 16 for upto date-info)

jumping off from nolmans templates, i thought i'd have a go at using the DAWOSC editor to knock up (what i thought would be simple) 8 track mixer, solo, mute, basic transport etc, layout for my nexus 7, using reaper's default OSC setup.


some aspects of the editor make life tricky at the mo, it's easy to lose elements behind others, updating values doesn't always (or easy to miss if u don't) confirm, having midi values of 0,0,0 (in the txt file) make a controller fail (Despite being osc) an other niggles. but hey this is new. easy fixes.

got great potential i think though.

posting my template so that reapers osc guys can maybe aid in fixing what doesn't work. i couldn't get mutes and solos to play ball. not sure if i need a 1 or some other oscy argument in there.

main issue really was faders jumping to zero or max, i found that this was due to the volume string and/or volume db str data coming from Reaper, messing with the volume messages.
so i commented those str bits out to get faders to behave. thats the only change in reapers osc file i made.

faders and meters don't 'initialize' or sync at the mo, vu faders need a tap to get going. things also jump to where you touch rather than do a soft-takeover thing. gui updates can stop if you press and hold an element.

i'm also finding the touch response hit and miss, i have to be v accurate hitting the middle of things to get a hit, if it was little more forgiving, elements could be made smaller i feel.

so its a 8 track faders, vu meters, master fader and vu, solos and mutes, play stop record forward back affair. and mostly works (aside mutes solos atm)

heres a screenshot (large sorry) and the text file which is easilty snoopable. i tried to make layout look ok too. not quite touchosc sexy but can get there!

rotary encoders would also be a good edition too whilst i'm streaming my conciousness.
