> [@Link sonic pi to Python](http://in-thread.sonic-pi.net/t/link-sonic-pi-to-python/2938/5): > > @Gydhia Here is a simple example with a Python client sending OSC messages to Sonic Pi. First, the Python client: import random import time from pythonosc import udp\_client client = udp\_client.SimpleUDPClient('127.0.0.1', 4559) while True: client.send\_message("/bpm", random.randint(40, 200)) time.sleep(5) The Python code establishes a client connection to the Sonic Pi OSC server which runs on port 4559 on my localhost (127.0.0.1). OSC is a network protocol, so it doesn’t matter w… --- _[View the full topic](https://in-thread.sonic-pi.net/t/communication-between-python3-and-sonic-pi-using-osc/3357)._
