Default Default.ReaperOSC File Location

I'm trying to edit my Default.ReaperOSC file and there are several of them. Does anyone know which one Reaper is using?

I have the Default.ReaperOSC file in the following locations:


C:\Program Files\REAPER (x64)\InstallData\OSC

C:\Program Files\REAPER (x64)\Plugins

C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\REAPER\OSC


Thanks so much!

Seems to be using C:\Program Files\REAPER (x64)\Plugins for those of you keeping score at home...

You tell Reaper which one to use when you set up your OSC control surface in prefs / control/OSC/web. There's also a link there in the "pattern config" dropdown to open the directory where the text files live: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\REAPER\OSC

Each control surface can use a different one and anytime you are looking for Reaper files, just use the action "show Reaper resource path in explorer." That's in the options menu by default. No need to search the whole hard drive and end up editing the wrong file. Although I admit I have no idea what the purpose of those other copies is...
This isn't for communication with a controller - it's for communicating with Reaper from a script via OSC. For that - the version in Plugin folder seems to be the correct one. But it is a little confusing having several copies of the same file in different locations.

No worries! My fault for not specifying what the use case was.

Interesting. I had no idea there was more than control surface OSC stuff.
