I'd like to use QLAB to control my whole show, however, they are no where near being able to compete with QLC in terms of lighting. So, I created a few basic scenes and placed buttons for each in the Virtual Console. I want to send OSC commands from QLAB to QLC to toggle the scenes on and off. I can see that the commands are reaching QLC because every time I send a test message, the packet count goes up, however, nothing happens. I assume I just don't have the syntax correct to make this happen. In the button settings for each scene, I'm not sure what the setting should be for input channel. I have used "Touch OSC Mix 16" profile but I don't think that is the solution either.

Do you see the joystick wiggling when you send something?
If so - you should create a custom profile and bind it to the universe where you send (input) your OSC message to.
If not - QLC+ isn't set up properly to receive OSC messages... review network settings

I was able to figure out the buttons.
1. make sure ports setup in both program are match.
2. This is the type of message that QLC+ like to receive and function. For example: /1/dmx/0 f 1.000000
3. In Qlab create a network Q and type in the message /1/dmx/0 f 1.000000 (you can replace the ../dmx/0.. with .../dmx/1.. in another Q.
4. Go to QLC+ Input/Output - Profile Tab and create a new OSC profile
5. in the OSC profile go to Channel Tab, and turn ON the Wizard
6. In Qlab go to your Q and send the message. It will automatically populate a new channel in QLC+ profile.
7. In QLC+ go to the virtual Console and edit your button for this specific OSC trigger.
Smile.
