Hi I'm doing a project which requires me to cut ontrol something using Iphone and I have no problems with that.
But on Ableton Live side, I wanted to turn play certain "scene" or some audio when I press a button on Iphone while playing different "scene" or audio when i press some other button on Iphone.

I'm able to play everything at once by sending OscMessage myMessage = new OscMessage("/live/play");
but not i dun wanna play them together at once.

Hoped someone can help me in this and thanks in advance..

To control individual scenes as you describe it, it is probably an osc structure question which might be answered looking at the osc address patterns and arguments used inside your Ableton Live patch. How does the address pattern determine which scene to trigger? via an argument (e.g. /live/play/scene 1) or an extension of the address pattern (e.g. /live/play/scene/1)? knowing that, will most probably do what you are looking for.

I tried both formats which u had mentioned but it doesn't work at all

Or am i doing something wrongly and this is my program in processing and I've attached 2 pics of Ableton Live which i'd set.

import oscP5.*;
import netP5.*;

OscP5 oscP5;
NetAddress myRemoteLocation;

void setup() {
size(400,400);
oscP5 = new OscP5(this,9001);
myRemoteLocation = new NetAddress("localhost",9000);
}

void draw() {
background(0);
}

void oscEvent(OscMessage theOscMessage) {
println("received an osc message. ");
println("addrpattern: "+theOscMessage.addrPattern());
}

void mousePressed() {

/* in the following different ways of creating osc messages are shown by example */
OscMessage myMessage = new OscMessage("/live/play/scene 1");
myMessage.add(1);
myMessage.add(3);
println("I sent a message.");
/* send the message */
oscP5.send(myMessage, myRemoteLocation);
}
