Here are listed all the commands that MXW recognizes.

Legend

Variables

When variables are found in the address of a command ( and not only as the value to be sent), the $+index notation has been employed :

/mxw/track/$1 [value] indicates that a variable $1 has to be chosen and will specify the correct address where the value will be sent.
If the goal is, for example, to reduce of 50% the opacity of the 2nd track, the correct command would be:

/mxw/track/2 0.5

Values

The standard used to represent the available values for each command (column “RANGE or TOKEN”) is:


FLOATS are represented with one decimal:

0.0 .. 1.0 → all float values between 0 and 1 included


INTEGERS are represented with numbers or descriptions:

1 .. 5 → all integers between 1 and 5 included ( 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 )
1 .. (MAX n layers) → all the integers between 1 and the maximum index of layers in MXW (e.g. if 6 layers are being used the values are integers between 1 and 6 included)

When only one number is indicated it means that only one option is given. This is found in addresses of buttons, checkboxes and in the options where "0" or "1" are the only significant values


STRINGS are represented between quotation marks:

“info” means that the string info has to be used at the end of the command

E.G. to ask for information about the patches the command

/mxw/set info

would be sent.

When “name” is contained in the available string variable, then the content is to be substituted with the actual name.

E.G. : to select and play a patch called “patch_one” from its name, the address /mxw/set with tokens "play" "name_of_patch" has to be used, resulting in this OSC command:

/mxw/set play patch_one


When OR is found it means that two options can deliver a similar result. One of the two formats has to be used at one time.

  1. The functionality of gotostart is the same as the gotostart button in the MXW playlist GUI ( ❙❙◀ ), so the command has to be sent two times to reset the playlist at the original state.
  2. The button play in the patch tab works like the play button in the MXW playlist GUI, every click will play the following patch.
  3. The values are sent to the "speed fader", which values go between 5 and -5, they do not act directly on the "speed value". This means that depending on the active media the available values in the fader will differ.
