This is a hack authored by Frederic Jaeckel (fjaeckel 'at' jc-ix 'dot' net) during the Music Hackday Barcelona 2012.
Tools you need to have installed:
- ruby 1.9.2 (or higher) including the bundler gem
- OSCulator - demo or licensed version (it's just 14 EUR, it's darn cheap!)
- Any MIDI capable program such as f.e. Ableton Live8 (used in this prototype)
Run this in a Terminal:
# git clone https://github.com/fjaeckel/sOSCial.git
Fire up OSCulator and load the sOSCial/config/osculator.oscd, ensure OSCulator is running on port 8000.
Take two Terminals and run the following commands
# cd sOSCial
# bundle install
# ./osc-em.rb
(second terminal)
# cd sOSCial
# ./web.rb
Now point your browser to http://localhost:4567/ and you should see the controls. Point it to http://localhost:4567/master and you see it including the knobs.
Now you just map the MIDI notes as usual to your favorite audio tool, this has been tested with Ableton Live8, though all others should work as well.
