Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

Funny you should mention the dimmed LEDs on BCR.

I was investigating my noise issues, and noticed the 5th column of 3 x 8 buttons was dimmly lit.
Even more curious ... if I unplugged the power to the BCR ... the were still dimly lit ... spooky.

Eventually when I unplugged midi in, the lights went out (midi out didnt turn out the lights).

I put midi in back in, and indeed same issue happened.

So this is what I am investigating as possibly a source of the noise ... some leakage from the midi in.

So glad it isnt just my BCR that is haunted :-)
