Assuming you want the Lemur to send data to your computer and not some other device
on the network, you’ll want to click the My IP button. It’s typical that Local IP will not
match the Target IP value when the Settings window first appears.

Next, we want to set the port on which the Lemur will transmit OSC data. Ports are
something like channel selectors that allow multiple applications to share the same IP
address and not get in each other’s way. The choice of port number is determined by
what software you are using.

• Port 8001 should not be used, because the JazzEditor uses this port to receive
information from the Lemur. If you try to use another application while the
JazzEditor is open, the application will not be able to access port 8001. Similarly, if
you launch the JazzEditor while another application is using port 8001, it will be
unable to connect properly to the Lemur. Unfortunately, port 8001 appears by
default in the Settings window, so you’ll need to change it.

• For Max/MSP, the port number can be anything, but 8000 is the typical value used.
• For Reaktor 5, the port number must over 10000.
• For other OSC-compatible software, consult the software’s documentation for the
port number.
• Click OK to close the Settings window. To verify that the Lemur has received your
Settings choices, press the Settings button on the Lemur front panel. The Target IP
and Port listed should match the IP address and port you specified.
