There is a bug in the Birdie editor. What he calls Preset Buttons (57 and 58) should really be 63 and 64
You can't program these buttons using the birdie editor.
I tried using the java editor from Behringer and I couldn't get it to work.
You can program it with my editor
if your unit is a BCR
$rev R1
$preset
.lock on ; this stops the preset buttons working as preset select
$button 63
.easypar CC 1 7 0 127 toggleoff
$button 64
.easypar CC 1 8 0 127 toggleoff
$end
the "<" button will send out
$B0 $07 $00
$B0 $07 $7F
the ">" button will send out
$B0 $08 $00
$B0 $08 $7F

There are a couple of files in the file area
BC Midi Implementation - an excellent doc about what we currently know about the BC sysex
(Behringer won't tell us anything)
SecretsBC.pdf about how to use the .tx command
My editor (BCn2000 Script Editor) is there as well as BC-Convert. You can use the above script in either
The Script editor directory also has some info files that you should download too.
Then they are available inside the editor for quick reference.
All the best
