As of Vuo 1.2, these device nodes have input editors allowing you to easily select a specific device from a menu:
Receive HID Controls
Receive OSC Messages
Receive Serial Data
Send OSC Messages
Send Serial Data
…but these nodes don’t yet have input editors:
Receive Art-Net Messages
Receive Image via Syphon
Receive Live Audio
Receive Live Video
Receive MIDI Events
Send Art-Net Messages
Send Live Audio
Send MIDI Event
This feature request is to give the latter nodes input editors, so you can easily pick a device from a menu (without having to use nodes such as Make MIDI Input from Name).
I just bought Vuo and immediately ran into this. It’s not entirely clear how I am supposed to make a “device” by name. There is a List Audio Devices but I’m not sure how to create a select box for choosing which one I want. And it’s also unclear whether this means ‘device’ or ‘device/channel’, as I don’t see a channel selection on the ‘Receive Live Audio’ block.
In short, I would say that the experience of trying to add an input from my interface has been a bit of a demoralizing experience. There’s just too many ‘what/where/how’ questions that pop up immediately that I’m sure don’t pose a problem for experienced users but which make the process uncomfortable.
If not this feature, then a detailed tutorial of setting up a non-default interface would be highly appreciated!
