9. Open Sound Control

Asset Manager has several Open Sound Control conventions to control Asset Manager Remote.

9.1 Default network ports

By default, Asset Manager uses port 15000 through 15003 for receiving network messages.

Port 15000 and 15001 are used for ASCII encoded OSC-like messages. 15000 is for TCP and 15001 is for UDP protocols. Internally, it uses mxj net.tcp.recv and mxj net.udp.recv respectively.

Port 15002 and 15003 are used for OSC encoded messages. 15002 is for TCP and 15003 is for UDP protocols. Internally, it uses sa.tcp.server and udpreceive respectively.

Furthermore, any Max client running on the same host can use send AM.Network instead of using a networked connection.
