dynamically control whether the text generated is in lower case or capitals

 This can easily be done via Javascript.

// iz_input 1 "text input"
// iz_input 2 "format mode"
// iz_output 1 "text output"
/*
INPUT ORDER
arguments[0] = incoming text
arguments[1] = format mode (Integer)
FORMAT MODES
1 = unchanged
2 = UPPERCASE
3 = lowercase
OUTPUT ORDER
The single returned value is sent to output 1.
*/
function main()
{
    var textInput = String(arguments[0]);
    var formatMode = Math.round(arguments[1]);
    var outputText = textInput;
    if (formatMode === 2)
    {
        outputText = textInput.toUpperCase();
    }
    else if (formatMode === 3)
    {
        outputText = textInput.toLowerCase();
    }
    // View these messages using Windows > Show Monitor.
    print("Input: " + textInput + "\n");
    print("Mode: " + formatMode + "\n");
    print("Output: " + outputText + "\n");
    return [outputText];
}

Hello Isadoramongers, quick test of a feature request: Caps Lock input for the Text Draw actor. (I never needed it before, but now there's the Speech to Text actor to play around with, it would be lovely to be able to dynamically control whether the text generated is in lower case or capitals)

This looks very interesting. Could you provide a download link for the Max for Live devices?

We'd also love it if you could upload them to the Add-Ons Page with your description, as posts with useful tools eventually get buried in the forum over time.

Hi there! I work as an audio engineer in theater, and I wanted to be able to precisely control other departments, such as lighting and video, along with audio. I was really unhappy with the existing options, so I decided to build my own Max for Live devices.

If you are running a show with Ableton / M4L & Isadora, these devices might be just as useful for you.

There are two devices online, until now:

Liveaudio 2 OSC:

This plugin allows you to send OSC values to Isadora, depending on the incoming audio. For example, you can apply it to the brightness level of your projection: the louder the incoming audio, the brighter the projection. You can also use it for zoom, color, position, and more.

Audio-Automation 2 OSC:

With this plugin, you can use four different strings to send four different values to Isadora. For example, you can apply them to the brightness level of your projection simply by writing automations on your audio track. You can also use them for zoom, color, position, and much more.

Here are some videos, to explain, what the devices do: https://youtube.com/playlist?l...

I really hope this is useful for you and that you have a lot of fun using it!

Cheers, Alex

@woland Many thanks L! Hopefully it’s possible.

Best wishes Simon

I asked him about it and will let you know if we can get the file uploaded to the YouTube description and/or Add-Ons Page.

Hello! Once again I'd like to say a HUGE thank you to the TroikaTronix team for the amazing new audio features that have been brought to us with Izzy 4.5!

I've just viewed the video that @mark has recently uploaded to the TroikaTronix YouTube channel showcasing some of the new audio features. It's great to watch and makes clear how many of the new features are designed to be used. It's much appreciated.

Is it possible for the Isadora file that Mark uses during the video to be accessed? I wanted to follow along with the video, however there's a Pythoner actor being used so it would be great to have access to this code.

Many thanks and best wishes,

Simon

Actually, if you humor me one more time, there's one thing we didn't try. Based on the fact that you stated this same setup used to work for you with an older version of Isadora, we should try that.

Can you:

1. In Isadora, go to Help > Open Plugins Folder > TroikaTronix Actors Plugins
2. Select everything in that folder, then right-click one of them and select "Compress"
   1. You'll get a .zip file that you can later unzip and use to restore the contents of this folder later if need be
3. Delete everything except the zip from that folder
4. Quit Isadora
5. Install an older version of Isadora using our Legacy Downloads Page (I'd suggest starting with 4.1.1 and working backwards)
   1. If you want to keep the recent version of Isadora on your computer too, see this article on how to install multiple versions of Isadora on your computer
6. Try streaming data from Rokoko again with each older version of Isadora and see if any of them are stable with your v2 suit.

One other idea, that unfortunately requires different hardware, is seeing if a Windows computer running Rokoko Studio and Isadora is stable for you. I know this worked for an artist I collaborate with in the UK who uses a v2 suit.

 Understandable. Sorry we weren't able to solve this in time for you. Hopefully we'll be able to pin this down and fix the issue for a future release.

@woland

An update:

- I downloaded Izzy 4.5, and the brand new version of Rokoko Studio. I also updated my OS to Tahoe 26.5.2
- I used a different SmartSuit Pro II (borrowed from a friend) to record new mocap data in Studio.
- Izzy continues to consistently crash. 

Since the problem does not seem to be resolvable and the project is for a dance solo that will tour this fall, I will need to procure another software to stream to. This is unfortunate.
