Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

That is an interesting thought, I will investigate at some point.
I am trying to focus back on music. Let me catch up and discover what you are talking about and I will try to come up with a solution.
I have not even been using these presets lately, so I don't even know how they work anymore!  Hahahaha
In the mean time take your question about the hand over to the ableton live forum, someone there might know how to access or what commands are involved.
With autohotkey we can map "many" things (either midi events or pc key to key stacks of commands, actions or other commands in Live.
However, it does involve coding(ok - not coding but scripting).

However, even better would be to have it always follow along when switching channels. So that the same knobs on the BCR would always control the EQ for whichever track I happen to have selected.

The "hand" will then move to the EQ device of the new channel. If there is no clip in the slot however, the hand doesn't move. The hand also doesn't move if using the cursor knob instead of the channel select buttons.
