Behringer X32 DAW Controller with Reaper
Is there a way to setup the Behringer x32 Daw Remote to communicate with Reaper. I have tired a few videos and only seems to control the Mix Bus side of the x32 and not the regular 1-32 side
Thanks

Welcome to the Reaper Forums "
The CSI Reaper plugin should be able to do this (using the appropriate set of configuration files).
Beware that it seems that the X32 only sends out 7 Bit Midi for the faders on USB, which seems to be poor for mixing purpose. Maybe it provides higher resolution on OSC, but this seems not to be confirmed, yet.

Are you technical at all ?
CSI, the project we work on -- there's and endlesss thread in this forum , has support for OSC.
The X32 speaks many dialects of OSC, we have been waiting for an early adopter to get this going, there will lots of trials and tribulations, but the result will be worth it (hopefully)
Are you up for that ?

I suppose there will be a lot of opportunities to get an X32 very cheap.
A German Music Store offers to give you € 1000 for one if you buy the new "Wing" Mixer.
While the Wing seems a really great desk, it lacks the count of analog ins, an X32 features. Hence to get an X32 for some €1000 seems like a great deal, even if you use it only as a Control Surface for Reaper. Any you can use it as an Audio interface as well, at the same time.

Do you mean the X-Touch? In addition to what is mentioned above, the klinke plugin works great w/ Reaper.

The X32 is a completely different beast than the XTouch. AFAIK not MCI protocol, hence no Klinke.

Totally true, I have an x32 rack w/ an x-touch. I was confused by the "daw remote", to me the x-touch is a DAW touch surface/remote and also allows me to remotely control my x32 rack.

I know - late to the party...
You can select MCU protocol on X32 when on DAW remote.
I use klinke csurf plugin - it works great!
Or you can use Patrick's x32reaper, also.

I know that this is an older post, and am wondering if there were any early adopters.
I certainly would be up for the task.

Cool, what we need is a map of the X32 OSC messages.
Do you have / can you generate a map?
You need a map entry for each fader/button/etc.
You also need maps for feedback from Reaper/CSI -- this includes meters, switch lights etc.
With that, we should be able to get the X32 up and running.

I think we would need both the OSC messages and someone at least a bit familiar with how to hook it up to a network.
Maybe start there.

Hi Geoff,
My primary career over the last 30 years has been as a software engineer/architect.
I have a very good understanding of the M32/X32 OSC messaging (Thanks Patrick-Gilles Maillot).
I have done some successful previous work with X32 <--> OSCII-BOT <--> REAPER, but have now decided that CSI would/should be the better way to go.
I will kick start off being an CSI/X32 adopter by providing you with the Transport messages first.
I will send the list of transport messages later this evening if I can find time.
Cheers,
Roy

Roy, if it helps, here's an example of a CSI .ost (OSC Surface) file for an MCU-like setup. Note: I renamed the file extension to .txt so I could upload it in the forum, which is fine because CSI .ost files are simply plain ASCII text files with a different extension.
Hopefully by looking at this you can get a feel for the how the OSC addresses get converted into CSI widgets and what the syntax would look like. The .ost file essentially defines all the capabilities of the surface (what buttons are included, their address, which have/expect feedback). Once you had a similar .ost file for the X32, the next step would be assigning those surface widgets to CSI/Reaper actions in a .zon file.
Anyway, I hope this is helpful.

Thanks @Funkybot, I will check it out.
However I am hoping for CSI/X32/OSC not to require X32 to be in MCU mode, and use the Native X32 OSC.

Hi Geoff,
I looked back at my OSCII-BOT X32 OSC implementation docs.
I started with MASTER track and track channels, and got that working in OSCII-BOT.
Here's my notes from back then.
I hope this helps.
BTW the X32 implementation of transport is soooo configurable on the X32 that there is no fixed/static OSC messages exclusively to transport.
I suggest implementing basic Master Track, and Track controls first.
Comments are most welcome.

The file I posted was not for an MCU device, it was for an OSC device that mimics the MCU layout and naming convention. I use it for testing sometimes without actually owning an MCU device of any kind. Just using my iPad and OSC. So there's no MIDI or MCU at all there, just pure native OSC.

@Funkybot,
Sorry, I mis-interpreted your post.
I have a lot of knowledge on the X32 console as well as it's OSC message formats, and have created some oscii-bot scripts for my own use. But I am very new to help porting it to CSI.
That's why I want to be an early adopter of CSI for X32/OSC.
I think I could be very helpful in that regard.
Cheers,
Roy

Roy,
Looking at what you posted it seems like that would get converted for CSI as this in the .ost file....
Code:
Widget Fader1
Control /ch/1/mix/fader
FB_Processor /ch/1/mix/fader
WidgetEnd
Widget ScribbleText1 // If you were to call this DisplayUpper1 instead, it may give you the ability to borrow existing .zon files and more easily retrofit them for the x32
Control /ch/1/config/name // I'm not sure this row is even required for displays but doesn't hurt
FB_Processor /ch/1/config/name
WidgetEnd
Widget Pan1
Control /ch/1/mix/pan
FB_Processor /ch/1/config/name
Widget End
Widget Mute1
Control /ch/1/mix/mute
FB_Processor /ch/1/mix/mute
Widget End
Widget Solo1
Control /-stat/solosw/1 // Interesting this follows a different convention than volume, pan, mute
FB_Processor /-stat/solosw/1
Widget End
Widget Fader2
Control /ch/2/mix/fader
FB_Processor /ch/2/mix/fader
WidgetEnd
Widget ScribbleText2
Control /ch/2/config/name
FB_Processor /ch/2/config/name
WidgetEnd
Widget Pan2
Control /ch/2/mix/pan
FB_Processor /ch/2/config/name
Widget End
Widget Mute2
Control /ch/2/mix/mute
FB_Processor /ch/2/mix/mute
Widget End
Widget Solo2
Control /-stat/solosw/2
FB_Processor /-stat/solosw/2
Widget End
Widget Fader3
Control /ch/3/mix/fader
FB_Processor /ch/3/mix/fader
WidgetEnd
Widget ScribbleText3
Control /ch/3/config/name
FB_Processor /ch/3/config/name
WidgetEnd
Widget Pan3
Control /ch/3/mix/pan
FB_Processor /ch/3/config/name
Widget End
Widget Mute3
Control /ch/3/mix/mute
FB_Processor /ch/3/mix/mute
Widget End
Widget Solo3
Control /-stat/solosw/3
FB_Processor /-stat/solosw/3
Widget End
You'd basically do continue on like that for each parameter on the hardware.

Then once you've got the .ost setup, the next step would be to start creating a zone folder and .zon files for the surface.
You'd need a X32_home.zon
Code:
Zone "Home"
IncludedZones
"Channel"
IncludedZonesEnd
ZoneEnd
// You could add more included zones like "Buttons" etc later on
Then a X32_Channel.zon (to start):
Code:
Zone "Channel"
TrackNavigator
ScribbleText| TrackNameDisplay
Fader| TrackVolume
Pan| TrackPan "0"
Alt+Pan| TrackPanWidth "1"
Shift+Pan| TrackPanL
Option+Pan| TrackPanR
Solo| TrackSolo
Mute| TrackMute
ZoneEnd
That would get you a basic CSI setup.

Thank you so much Funkybot
However the X32 will not send any osc messages to CSI until it receives "/xremote" from CSI.
"/xremote" is basically telling X32 that "Hey X32, CSI here, and I want to subscribe to your osc messages".
After "/xremote" is received by the X32 it will send osc events to CSI for 10 seconds. Therefore the "/xremote" should be sent by CSI on a periodic basis that is less than 10 seconds to ensure that no osc events are missed by the CSI. I would suggest every 5 seconds.
Is this something that CSI can do?

Reaper can and does #bundle osc messages.
X32 does not support #bundle messages.
Can CSI unbundle them before being sent to the X32?

is there any advantages to establishing X32/CSI integration which you couldn't achieve with a comprehensive OSCii bot script ? its always cool to see new tools but I'm wondering if you gain anything ?
thanks again Roy for your port of OSCii bot by the way.. been really helpful here..

Hi EcBaPr, it has been a while since we last talked.
I made the decision to go with CSI as the code for my OSCII-BOT script was getting way to large for the 30 or so events that I got working.
Also, once I get CSI working for the X32 it should, with maybe just minimal tweaks to CSI, work for the entire X family.
And the big bonus will be to everyone with an X32.
Not to mention the huge amount of support the forum can provide.
Cheers, Roy

Help: Need 1 More thing to start CSI testing
I have installed CSI 1.1 and need just 1 thing before I can continue CSI-X32 development.
In order for CSI to receive OSC messages from the X32, it must send "/xremote" to the X32 every 5 seconds.
Does CSI have the capability to instantiate a background thread that could do this?

Thanks EcBaPr
I totally understand the X32 OSC messaging.
But I am still learning CSI
But I am hung up on this one: Does CSI have a timer thread that be used to issue an "/xremote" every 5 seconds?
I am still googling OSC on CSI/REAPER and may come up with an answer I hope.
Cheers,
Roy

Until CSI can do this, I am at a stand still

Thought you said you were a software engineer/architect
Are you familiar with C++ ?
CSI is open source.
There is a virtual Widget called OnInitialization.
You could write a simple Action to send the OSC message upon initialization.
That would at least give you ten seconds.
You could then hook a button to that action as well until we can build a timer for the heartbeat, and buy yourself another ten seconds with a button push

Hi Geoff,
I am very familiar with c++ using visual studio.
What version of VS does the open source require?

Oops, too early on Sunday, this was meant to be in the more general CSI area

Great news !!
I'm using Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2019 Version 16.11.7.
Just download the source and have a look -- some of it is ok, some not so much, like any code
You will want to look at the files that contain Actions:
control_surface_action_contexts.h
control_surface_manager_actions.h
control_surface_Reaper_actions.h
This will give you a flavour of how to design and code an Action.
In order to use the new Action it needs to be added to the dictionary -- see control_surface_integrator.cpp around line 1027.
Let's say you designed the Action to take a string param (the message), and you named it SendOSCString, the Zone definition would look like this:
Code:
Zone SomeZone
OnInitialization SendOSCString "/remote"
...
SomeButton SendOSCString "/remote"
Zone ZoneEnd
That's the basics, please get back with any questions.

I am using VS 2019 Enterprise edition and the sln compiles good, but with a lot of warnings. So I set the project warning settings to /W0 and all warnings are gone.
Later today when I wake up I will delve into the source code.

Yeah, since this is basically an R&D project, I'm pretty lax on warnings, if I know they are meaningless, like complaining about possible unsigned/signed comparisons in Win32 macros, while we're on 64 bit systems, and indeed, a lot of that old Win32 macro stuff is actually 16 bit from the old DOS days, I know, I was coding Windows WAY back then
One day, I will bite the bullet and clean that junk up
