Hi Mark,
 yes, the buttons activating and de-activating was my main concern, because I was trying to assign them to solos/mutes on an 8 channel drum machine.
I guess I am gonna forget about that...Could it be dirty contacts inside?
Thanx for reply.
Best, Karel

What you're describing here is a totally different issue, namely a hardware problem of the BCF/BCR, to which someone drew my attention about a year ago (I can't remember if this was in this forum or via private email):
when you use a BCF/BCR in a dark room, you can see that certain encoders affect the LEDs of certain other encoders. Bizarre, but probably nothing too worry about - this is just how the BCF and BCR are wired, apparently.

But I was under the impression that your main problem concerns "conceptual" links between buttons/encoders, i.e. where two or more buttons/encoders share the same MIDI channel and e.g. controller number.

Mark.
