That's great - thank you Edward:)

A quick Google for "midi to osc converter" shows a lot of people have had the same issue in various situations and some of the hits cover solutions that are on offer. These include free options. I haven't time to review any of the options and, even if I did you should still carry out your own research but I am intrigued by the first result I got. ShowCockpit, it costs between €30 and .€299 depending on on the options you want and seems to be well documented. This is not a reccomendation but it interested me enough that I may give it a try myself even though I already use a TouchOSC thing I wrote which includes midi input and OSC output. In 24 years I've had one touring show come in that wanted midi control of the desk and it might be handy to have a solution on standby in case it happens again. Looking at free options I found MidiMonster interesting. It is open source and appears to be free. It's a bit more complicated to set up but not too bad and there is documentation although it seems a bit sketchy. Again, you should do your own research - there could be better options. When you get a solution that works you should give the forum a heads up as there may be others that need it.

Hi @MilesBuckley Welcome to the forum. I have not personally had experience with converting MSC to OSC. However, another potential solution - could you contact the SFX6 team, and see whether OSC is on their road-map? You never know - they may be planning on implementing it soon, which would save you the time and effort of figuring out a protocol converter.

You can do it with TouchOSC (the new, paid version not the mk1, free one) but it would require some coding.

Yeah it works! Thanks @Edward Z88 for your quick answer!

Hello Edward All looks good. Many thanks for your reply.

Hi @Speedy Welcome to the forum. To record custom Home, Default, or Max Level values, you will need to ensure that “SmartTag” is disabled in the record options. If your custom Max Level values are not currently how you want them, first tap DELETE > HOME > Max Level. Then double tap CLEAR, and set the fixtures you need to your desired maximum level. Then press and hold RECORD, and in the Record Options that open on the touchscreen, ensure SmartTag has a blue stripe, meaning disabled. If it has a red stripe, tap to disable. Then tap the HOME key, and then choose Max Level. Now only the lights you adjusted will be given a Max Level. I hope this helps.

Far and away my biggest want is Mac Phantom zerOS. My Apple silicon Mac runs Capture at 100+ fps without the fan even turning on! Phantom is pretty stable under Parallels 19 running side-by-side on the same monitor with Capture, but there are some glitchy bits that I assume are due to the emulation.

If an effect is running on a fixture, effect parameters will be shown on the encoder wheels upon selecting the fixture and tapping the Effect tab. That's correct, however this data cannot be viewed on the console.
