Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

Hi Paul,

I haven't used Guitar Rig specifically, but I've used quite a few VST
instruments.

There are two answers to this. The first is that if you program the
BCR to control GR, then as long as you keep to the same
instrument/settings/preset in GR, the BCR LEDs will reflect the values
in GR, and there won't be a jump. As soon as you switch to a different
preset in GR, or load a new session, the BCR's internal values for
each parameter will be different, and there will be a jump when you
move a pot. This can be accommodated by using different controller
modes.  For example, it's possible to set a parameter to change only
as the BCR pot passes through the value in software. This isn't a
function of the BCR, just the hosting software. A continuous mode also
solves this problem, but then you lose the LED feedback.

Which leads on to parameter feedback. This is usually quite
complicated, and involves configuring your software to send MIDI data
for each parameter, back to your BCR. Now when you switch presets in
GR, or load a new session, each parameter value will be sent to the
BCR, and the pot LEDs will reflect their value. There will be no jump.

Hope this helps,

Graham
