Are you by any chance sending MEMORY presets to the BCR? Basically the
problem with that is that the BCR's actual behavior is determined by
the "TEMPORARY" preset ("preset 0" in BC Manager).

There have been several message threads about this in the BC2000 Yahoo
group lately; in particular you may look at my message "Re: BC Manager
midi channel issue" of Jan 1, 2009 and two messages called "Re:
Getting strated: saving edited preset" of Jan 8, 2009.

Let me know if this doesn't fix your problem.

No. Except that the BCR must not be in Global Setup edit mode ("EG" on
the display), or editing a button/encoder - but in all these cases BC
Manager warns you that things aren't working when you're sending a
preset to the BCR.
