Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

Hi

> it's clear... :(

There is a solution if you can program a PC or Mac.
Set up the BCR with CC controls.
Plug it into a PC 
Write a program (you might be able to use Bome's Midi Translator) that takes the CC values from the BC and after just changing just the correct bits in the combined parameter puts out the sysex message.
 
I have done this before and it isn't that hard. 
If you get into trouble feel free to email me.

All the best
