Re: 8 different midi CCs into 1 pot?

>  thank you so much, it worked, at first I was making a mistake by not writing the message in between  the beginning and end message, (I was getting errors on all lines) and when I got the BC MIDI implementation manual, I finally put the message in the right place and it worked. (I had to change the "o" to "0" with the $ sign inside 0)...
Unfortunately it is hard sometime to tell what sort of level of expertise the question is coming from.
I certainly don't want to over material that is obvious to some out there.
The font I used is the default Yahoo (Georgia) and has Oo and zero is 0 - not very helpful.
I'll try to remember to change it to Courier so the Oo and 0 is obvious.
I'm not sure what 'the $ sign inside 0' means the hex numbers can be 1,2,3 or 4 characters ... $7, $07, $1E7 or $3FFF

Good choice. Mine was written along time ago and suits a knuckle headed brain like mine.

I wouldn't bother. You can do anything the BC can offer in Mark's editor
> Your BCReditor seems more complex or programmer oriented? (I found no "manual")...
It was written when were trying to work out what the BC could do (as Behringer certainly wasn't going to tell us).
Mark then wrote such a good editor I didn't see the point of continuing development.

You can write all the BCL lines in Mark's editor as either text (as far as I know) or use the graphic editor.
I am faster with my editor as I have done a lot of programming.

They are great.
I don't know why Behringer under sells their possibilities.
Perhaps they think it might scare away some players who perhaps think they are too complicated. Who knows

Pleasure. Keep up the good work.
All the best
