ETC Nomad/Qlab Same Computer

[Will Elphingstone]

Hello! I know I can get Qlab to trigger Nomad on the same computer via OSC but am having trouble getting the setting right so that it will work. Has anyone done this and if so what settings did you use. EOS 2.4 and Qlab 4

I have toured with it now for a couple of years. Very stable and through countless setups at different theaters. The key to get Qlab to talk to EOS is in System Preferences->Sharing->Computer Name: i.e. "your_computer.local" Take this name and put it in Qlab Settings->OSC->Patch 1->IP Address and then make sure that the Qlab OSC Port (6000) matches the EOS Settings->Show Control=String RX (ENABLED) and String RX Port (6000). Then in Qlab Fire OSC Cues that send Raw UDP Strings and the Message looks like: Cue 1(list#) 9(cue#) #(end of command) or completed by itself: "Cue 1 9 #" and that command will then fire cue list 1 cue 9 - Cheers!

Thank You! Can you email me an Eos and a Slab file so I can make sure everything is what it is supposed to be? In Qlab do you select a Qlab, OSC, or USP Message for the cue? Is "Cue 1 9 #" exactly what goes in? Trying to make sure I have everything 100% correct. Thanks!

Hi Will,

Sorry, but I don't have a file to share as it's not something I do.

Scott, I may have some questions for you soon about this same dilemma. Do you remember what version of Qlab you were using?
