Leap Mapper is an open-source application to manage and send Leap Motion data to any audio and visual software able to receive OSC and MIDI messages. With Leap Mapper you can also send Leap Motion data to any hardware with embedded MIDI connection through a MIDI I/O interface.

Leap Mapper is developed by Balandino Di Donato at Integra Lab.

• Java

• Install Java
• Launch LeapMapper
• Switch the MIDI or OSC for sending messages
• Open your MIDI or OSC receiver application. If you are sending data via OSC, the set your receiver's port at 5432.'

The MIDI port can be changed through source code

To change cc value of the single Leap Motion value, you need to open the relative MIDI.pde file and edit the parameters of the functions which send MIDI data.

To change cc values of Leap Motion values you have to open the MIDI.pde file

open <path>/<to>/LeapMapper/LeapMapper/MIDI.pde

and then edit the function to send MIDI data.

myBus.sendControllerChange(channel, cc, value);

NB: left hand Leap Motion data are sent on channel 1, and right hand Leap Motion data are sent on channel 2.

Myo Mapper sends OSC messages at the port 5432. To change it you have to go through the following steps:

• Open the osc.pde file within the Myo Mapper folder

  open <path>/<to>/LeapMApper/LeapMapper/osc.pde (from terminal)

• Edit the host IP and port number at the 10th line of code:

                              Host IP      Port
                                  |          |
                                  V          V
  

myRemoteLocation = new NetAddress("127.0.0.1",5432); // IP address and Port

• Save the osc.pde file
• Compile or Export application again.
