Don't we all , the rule is ' the more flexible, the more complicated' and the BC is very flexible
You might like to try writing script instead of the BC Manager.
Grab my editor
Grab Mark's pdf on the Behringer Control Language (BCL)
Take a look at BC Screts pdf to get an idea.
; is a comment
$ the number is in hex otherwise decimal
The script looks like this
$rev R1 ; for the BCR
$preset
.name 'Your preset'
.snapshot off
.request off
.egroups 4 ; make the top row of encoders into 4 rows
.fkeys on
.lock off
.init ; clear the preset in the edit buffer
$encoder 49 ; bottom left
.showvalue on ; the LED display
.mode 1dot ; the circle of LEDs around the encoder
.resolution 96 96 96 96
.default 0 ; starting point
.minmax 0 127
.tx $F0 $43 $10 $12 $24 val $F7 ; Output level for the Yamaha TQ5 synth
$button 9 ; group 2 - the switch on top of encoder 1 but with group 2 selected (group buttons - top far right)
.showvalue on
.mode incval 1 ; each time you press, increment the value
.default 1 ; starting point
.minmax 0 3
.tx $F0 $43 $10 $12 $20 val $F7 ; Rate scaling for operator 2 on the Yamaha TQ5 synth
$end
All the best
