Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

Sadly, this is not possible within the BCR2000 at present. Knobs can only control their own values. 

I saw a video in which someone had actually written custom firmware for the BCR2000 and had it running as a standalone step sequencer. I just did a cursory Google search for it and it appears to have disappeared.

I also have to mention that I've made and sell a very deep step sequencer for Macintosh which was created from the start to work with the BCR2000. It features extensive transposition, randomization and output modulation. You can find more info and a demo version here-
