By the way, this concept of sending visual feedback OSC is brilliant! I'll have a go at it soon enough. This _could_ grow into a fully interactive hybrid platform for running tidalcycles ---

Not sure what you are referring to, I used the default theme for Open Stage Control. Here is my `control.json` file, it it helps ! ```haskell { "session": { "type": "root", "id": "root", "interaction": true, "width": "auto", "height": "auto", "colorBg": "auto", "colorText": "auto",

Thanks! The way I did it, the main drawback is the lag in the display - the pattern gets updated as it plays. I guess it could be useful in some situations, though! [Previous page](https://uzu.lurk.org/t/open-stage-control-tidalcycles/1283.md?page=1)
