Major issues with new BCF2000 - lots of lag and a broken button

2013-02-20 by Joey Robinson

Hi all,

I bought a new BCF 2000 off eBay, (in new condition), and am in need of some serious help.

The rotary knobs themselves have a fair bit of jumpiness or lag compared to the BCR I just hooked up. The BCR feels fantastic, with a nice resolution to the knobs. The BCF feels jumpy. I've tried everything I can think of and have researched on google. I've ran the unit in every emulation mode, I've tried straight midi mapping a knob to pan or a send, and also have tried using Learn. The Learn button on the BCF seems to not work for mapping most of the knobs.

I am using Win7 x64 and have the latest x64 drivers from the Behringer site installed. I9;ve tried with every manner of "Mackie" or "BCF" control surface mode in Ableton, as well as tried disabling/enabling the different MIDI track options below. I've tried switching USB cables between the BCF and BCR, nothing seems to make a difference. The knobs in general are much looser on the BCF2000 than the BCR. They have a much worse resolution and laggy feel than the BCR. I have no idea what else to try. Oh, and yes I'm using the latest 1.10 firmware.

I am also having an issue where the "left preset" browse button only works half the time if in B-Control mode. The button is obviously dying, fresh out of box. Are these buttons fixable?

Thanks immensely for any help.
