Re: Computer Editor to BCR2000

Hi

No you can't 'Teach' the BC to send continuous changing Midi messages.
It will only 'Learn' a single message not a variable one. OK for
switches.
The BC will put out a continuous Midi including sysex (including a
checksum if your synth needs it) but you have to program it.
Behringer say it won't, but it will.
The Behringer manual won't tell anything about how to do this kind of
stuff.

0) Go the the Wiki mentioned at the Home page of this group for some
basic info

1) go get Mark's editor at his web site Mountain Utilities (Link in the
files section )
2) get a copy of the sysex spec of the synth - You can use SoundDiver
etc to output the message so YOU can look at it with MidiOx instead
of/as well as looking in the sysex spec.
3) Read my pdf in the Documents section of the Files here or Mark's full
BCL document at his web site
4) Have a look at some of the synth files in the preset section of the
Files for examples of synth controlled by the BC
5) Select a control (eg encoder ) on the editor and go to the "Learn'
section of the editor and write in the sysex message you want the
encoder to output. Dowload it to the BC
6) Come back here for more help if (when?) it doesn't work as you
thought it should.

All the best

Royce
