OSC Modifier
Updated: 15 Sep 2026
Receive a modifier value over OSC.
OSC Modifier
Method #
This nodes receives a numeric float or integer value via the OSC protocol over a network, and outputs it as a modifier value. See OSC Topic for more details.
If the node is red hashed out, this means the node isn’t receiving data. This is either because an OSC address/port needs to be set, or because OSC needs to be enabled in the Project>Settings>Protocols window.
The incoming OSC values will only be processed when the play head is playing.
The output is a numeric value that can be further processed with other modifiers, or directly connected to a parameter in another node, using the operation method selected.
This node can be used to receive multiple values from one message by using the OSC Channel Value Index parameter. This lets you control the index of the value you want to receive from the message’s arguments.
Parameters
These properties control the core behaviours of the node.
Parameter Details Current Value
Shows the current value of the modifier. Cannot be directly changed.
OSC Address
The OSC address that the MOVIN point cloud date is being sent to. This must begin with a: /
OSC Channel Value Index
Select a specific value from an array of input OSC Values.
Scale
Adjust the scale/range of the modifier.
Offset
Applies an offset (post scale) to the calculated value.
Operation
The operation to be performed on the targeted parameter.
- Add : Adds to the existing parameter value.
- Subtract : Subtracts from the existing parameter value.
- Multiply : Multiplies the existing parameter value.
- Replace : Replaces the existing parameter value.
The properties control the time at which the node is active. See Timeline for editing time segments.
Parameter Details Duration
Control the duration of the node’s time segment.
- Composition Duration : Use the length of the composition for the node’s time segment duration.
- Custom : Set a custom duration for the node’s time segment.
Node Time
The custom start and end time for the node.
Duration (Timecode)
The length of the node’s time segment (in time).
Duration (Frames)
The length of the node’s time segment (in frames).
Time Segment Enabled
Set whether the node’s time segment is enabled or not in the Timeline.
