Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

I mailed them too, and got a stock reply.
I can sort of understand them not wanting to do this, since it is a non-standard MIDI implementation that Alesis chose.

Would be interested what reply you got from mailing Behringer ... maybe 3 is the magic number. You might like to explain that the Novation Zero MkII can apparently handle the "negative" NRPNs (I am guessing it gracefully over/under flows).

Anyhow, if you are interested I created a panel for the Miniak (http://launch.dir.groups.yahoo.com/group/bc2000/files/Presets/AKAI_MINIAK/ or also http://sourceforge.net/projects/miniaktools/files/Production_1.00/BCR_Presets/). AFAIK it should work with the Micron. It covers all the params (Godric didnt do tracking or mod sources).

I have toyed with idea of creating a miniakpanel with a bias, so that we can set a param to say 0 ... 201, and it bias back to -100, 100 (so that only one knob is needed). I reason that with so many knobs available, using 2 knobs for each -ve param is not such a big deal.
