Hi there,
I've just purchased a second hand BCF2000 and some things appear not to be ok:
- The fader #1. When you turn on the BCF2000, all the faders go down except this number 1. It sends midi data with no problem, but it doesn't respond to 'remote changes'. For example, in Ableton I map this fader to a channel volume. It works ok. Then I record an atumation. Ok. But when I play the track with the automation recorded the fader doesn't move at all. Beside that, when I change preset to #2 in BCF, the fader moves correctly to its recorded position along with the new preset...
The other problem:
- Top encoders #2,3,4,5,7 and 8 doesn't respond linearly when tweaking. I mean: when you tweak up and down, values doesn't go up and down following the tweak movement. Instesd of this, they shows a value and moves around this value very slowly. For example, you tweak a knob from 0 to 30. It shows 0,1,2,3,2,3,4,3,4,3,4,5,4,5,6,5,6,7,6,7,8 and so on. Its completely annoying.
What I've done:
- With BCManager I've seend that top encoders are configured with absolute parameters and cc values. Nothing strange.
- I've resent firmware 1.10 to the unit.
- I've disassembled the unit. When I get to the encoders I see them hooked to the electronic tablet inside a cylinder and I think the problem could be inside that cylinder but I wasn"t able to open it (feel like I'm going to break it)
- I have tried with different wires also.
I own a BCR2000 working like a charm and I'm used to work with music equipment of this type.
Please help!
