I understand about the pots being relative, but there must be a way the BCF gets the led values when in MCU mode. Cubase outputs MIDI data to the controller everytime you change a settings with the mouse (pan, channel select, eq, whatever) to inform the controller the value has changed. My question should have been more precise ... I guess Behringer have implemented a special 'receive' mode in MCU mode, but I could not see how this can be achieved in BC mode with BC Manager.
