Hi,

I am using the BCF to control Martin Lightjockey via a program called Faders For Lightjockey. The software will work with any MIDI device that is hooked to my computer, and I can chose my device from a list of installed hardware from inside the program. Using the software I am able to use the faders & rotary encoders to control assigned channels inside Lightjockey; the more faders I have, the more control. To daisy chain them I have switched the first BCF to U4 and the second BCF to S3. When I do this, I get an error from Faders, and it tells me there are no devices installed. I have used other MIDI devices with no such problems, so I am a little confused; am I missing something in the BCF settings??
