Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

Alan, 

I had a quick look on the web for a manual and there was a badly scanned version from RolandUS.

At the back it had the start of the sysex info, giving the header details, but just stopped after the bulk data transfer.
I don't know if there are missing pages or that is all it can do.

If you have an original manual perhaps you could compare it to the downloaded version - towards the back, around pp114 - and let me know.
If they are the same you could do a more detailed search on the  web to see if the sysex info is out there.

Is there an PC/Mac editor for the thing. If there is and you could use the editors output

You need the parameter sysex details.


All the best

Royce

I fear that this machine may be a little too early for such sophisticated functions. Does this mean we're onto a complete non starter with this idea?

It sends out a separate midi note number for each drum sound and it's patterns can be tweaked, on the fly, in a live context. The only trouble is that the assignment of midi note numbers to drum sounds is a mind-numbingly tedious programming task that cannot be performed live.
