Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

Hi,

I'm very close to order BCR2000 for my Cubase 5 setup. However, I can't decide between Behringer BCR2000 or Novation SL MK II because of following.

Can I with BCR2000 select and jump between different VST instruments, effects plug-in and mixer WITHOUT using mouse? As it is possible with Novation SL MK II.

I know that it is possible to use BCR2000 in Mackie mode, but is it possible to do that without additional programming etc?

I hope that someone can answer. Thanks.
