Re: Looking for a new controller.

Ray,

Quite a wish list you have there! Unfortunately it might be a tough 
list to accomodate. The BCR does have endless encoders, but they are 
not actively monitoring the settings of your VSTi's, so upon 
initialization, you will have a CC jump until you sync up  the 
parameter and the knob. As far as I know, the Mackie Emulation 
suffers from the same fate. I have been controlling numerous synths 
and Cubase using different User created presets, and this has never 
been an issue, however. I usually sync the parameters up before 
recording. You can also create a template in your vST'i that is 
already synced with the settings of you BCR, REALLY easy to do! 
Simply have all your knobs on the BCR synced, and save a preset in 
the VSTi (I'd Call it BCR default), and store the preset on you BCR 
and no CC jumping! Unless you change patches that is....
