<br>
<br>
When we launched the OSM the Photon firmware libraries didn't support<br>
the modes of communication (stand-alone AP, node-to-node) that we needed<br>
so a lot of work had to be done to modify it.<br>
<br>
<br>
OSM implements OSC over UDP, and HTTP, but we've also beta support for<br>
RTP-Midi (works well, has built in latency compensation) and web<br>
sockets. Typical latency is less than 15ms round trip (module to module).<br>
<br>
In real use the latency is not noticeable and using OSC floats there's<br>
no stepping.<br>
