vvvv gamma Channels — C# Integration

What Are Channels

Channels are named, typed, observable value containers — the central reactive data flow mechanism in vvvv gamma. Any code (patches, C# nodes, external bindings) can read and write channels by their string path.

Key properties:

• Each channel has a path (string), a type, and a current value
• Setting a value fires all subscribers (reactive push)
• vvvv provides built-in channel bindings for MIDI, OSC, Redis, and UI
• Channels persist state across sessions

Public Channels and IChannelHub

Public channels are channels registered in the app-wide channel hub — accessible by any code via string path lookup.
