I am working with the Muse 2, the brain wave detector, which can send the EEG via OSC. And I am using the Mind-Monitor app to monitor data and send it via OSC. So I’m testing the data from this example [Example Code](https://github.com/Enigma644/MindMonitorPython/blob/main/OSC%20Receiver%20Simple.py)

I’m running this on Mac Catalina and finally work it out with python3 so I see the data comes in to my terminal

At first, it shows this:

until I interupt it with my keyboard pressed  
so I got this list:

[the URL links for those images are here: [osc-mind-monitor — ImgBB](https://ibb.co/1Ghbf0q)  
[OSC-data-eeg — ImgBB](https://ibb.co/rpnZffg) ]

But on Processing, I did not receive anything.  
I’ve learned some OSC examples from the library of Processing but it only works with another sketch (for instance, the broadcastClient and broadcaster examples.)

I am curious whether my IP address is wrong or I have to parse the message beforehand.

The port number can be changed but I see that my IP from the example is ‘127.0.0.1’ but that’s not the IP address of my Wi-Fi. When I changed it on the sketch to ‘192.168.1.10’, the console; however, did not change to this new IP though. It still shows ‘127.0.0.1’

If I have to parse the message, how do I do that with these float numbers from Muse 2 EEG?

Does anyone have any suggestion? any advice is appreciated. Thank you in advance.

hi! I only used old versions of muse and not sure about the latest ones. What I understand is,

muse → app → python

works but

muse → app → processing

doesn’t work, right? Do you see target IP address setting in the muse app? this should point to the computer - and if it’s working with python, you won’t need to change anything for Processing.

another way is of course to use the python script as a proxy - so you send osc again from python to processing. This is redundant and should be avoided, but if there’s no other way round, I might consider it…
