Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

Hey Elea,

Good stuff, the Cubase XML MIDI Primer.

Any tips on MMC with Cubase and XML?
I have trouble getting the transport features working. The sliders and
other controls are fine. Just not the MMC ADAT transport. Is there an
XML file parameters for transport controls?

Thanks,

Steve M
