Re: getting channel meters to work with BCR2000 in Mackie mode

2011-09-04 by OlliK

I got it working.
The Mackie protocoll is sending the level meters info as channel pressure (aftertouch).
Since it's all sent on Midi channel one I remapped the aftertouch data to different Midi channels with MidiOx.
I now have 8 encoders working as level meters when I use the BCR in Mackie mode. Works nicely.

If anyones interested I can describe the detailed steps how to do it.
