Yamaha RCP to OSC Bridge

A Rust-based utility that bridges Yamaha RCP (Remote Control Protocol) commands to OSC (Open Sound Control) messages, enabling integration between Yamaha mixing consoles and OSC-compatible systems.

Overview

This project translates Yamaha's proprietary RCP protocol into standardized OSC messages, making it possible to control Yamaha mixing consoles through OSC-compatible software and hardware. It's particularly useful for custom control solutions and integration with various audio control systems.

Why

You might be surprised to know that Yamaha does not provide a real-time interface to their consoles. The only way to get real-time data is to use the RCP protocol, which is a proprietary protocol that is not documented by Yamaha. This project provides a bridge between the RCP protocol and OSC, making it possible to control Yamaha mixing consoles through OSC-compatible software and hardware.

Additionally this provides a small work around for Yamaha's RCP protocol which does not give detailed information when a notification of sscurrent_ex is received. In this case this utility will send a ssinfo_ex command to get the current scene information.

Any commands send over OSC are passed back to this library as is.

Usage

Generic

yamaha-rcp-to-osc --console-ip 192.168.69.165

Vor

Example for DM3

Create a Custom OSC connection.

Change Address 1 to /ssinfo_ex/scene_a

Create a layout from Custom OSC with the label set to Console: %1:2 %1:3

yamaha-rcp-to-osc --console-ip 192.168.69.165 --udp-osc-out-port 5003
