Use it

Find the MIDI ports, then start the bridge with this driver:

osc-bridge detect        # prints the ready-to-run line for what is plugged in
osc-bridge run --device devices/zoom/ms_70cdr.electra-newignis-v2.fw-unknown.json --out-port <N> --in-port <M>

Then send OSC to 127.0.0.1:7777, for example:

osc-bridge osc-send /ms_70cdr/tuner_mode 63

From Claude or any MCP client, the osc-bridge mcp server exposes this driver as ms_70cdr: ask “what can the Zoom MS-70CDR do?” and it reads this map with list_routes. See the MCP guide.

Frequently asked questions

How many parameters of the Zoom MS-70CDR can be controlled over MIDI?

SynthHub's map of the Zoom MS-70CDR lists 1 MIDI CC parameters, each with its number, range and a readable name; the full chart is on this page.

Can an AI agent like Claude control the Zoom MS-70CDR?

Yes: SynthHub's hosted MCP server knows the Zoom MS-70CDR's MIDI map, and its browser relay lets the agent send it parameter changes or load a sound, each sound change confirmed by you.
