Connections - OSC Remote

Open Edit -> Connections… and select OSC Remote.

Receive OSC on a UDP port so phones, show controllers, or other apps can drive Samba without DMX.

This is not the grandMA3 Live Link page. grandMA3 uses its own OSC ports and plugin. OSC Remote is a general Samba control listener.

Connections - OSC

Starts or stops the OSC listener.

When to use: Enable when TouchOSC, Companion, or a custom sender should control Samba. Leave off if unused so the port stays closed.

UDP port Samba opens for OSC input.

When to use: Match the destination port in your OSC sender. Change it if another app already owns the default port.

Built-in list of supported paths (below).

When to use: Copy paths into your OSC layout while testing.

Recent received messages.

When to use: Verify sender address, path, and arguments when nothing happens on stage.
