RE: Re: BCF2000 Blown up

Hi Patrick, you mention the use of the bcf2000 with Avid for video editing. Have you managed to get Media Composer to talk to the unit in order to get the the motorized faders to move? Nobodo in the Avid user groups seems to have gotten that to work, so if you've figured that out I'd love to know how it's done.


Thanks.

Zach

I got my unit replaced. In was all quite painless and hats-off to musicstore.com for the system they have in place. With great German efficiency they emailed me a sticker to print and then send it in the post FOC. They returned a new unit.
So..off we go again. I have to say that I like the BCF2000 for the job I do..as in video editing for broadcast, feature film and the web, mainly on Edius/Avid and Nuendo. I've got it working on Lightworks too which may be the future platform for the work I do, as it was many years ago. Running Lightworks and Ardour 3 on Linux is the way I want to look at anyway. It's looking good so far.
Thanks for the help.

Turning back on they were still there and then the big one and now the unit is dead. It hasn't been exposed to damp and anything else so I'm wondering if it has been a common fault on batches etc. It sounded like power supply and the resulting smell is coming from around the power button.
