A few years ago I tried to make my BCR2000 work under Windows 98 (SE) via USB, but (if I remember correctly) I couldn't make it work at all.

Windows XP (or later) automatically installs its default "USB Audio Device" when you connect a BCR via USB, but I think my Windows 98 didn't do this. Furthermore, my attempts at installing a Behringer USB driver for the BCR also failed.

Hacks or new kernels might make this work, but it seems very difficult.

Can't you simply connect the BCR (typically in operating mode S-4) to your computer's audio card via standard MIDI cables?
Then you don't need to install any USB drivers for the BCR, and the BCR can work straightforwardly with any MIDI software that can run under Windows 98.

Funnily enough my own BC Manager dropped support for Windows 98 a month ago, but if you want a version that does works with Windows 98, just let me know.

Mark.
