Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

I'm running 1.10 on both units. I'm not sure how you mean by the start
up working on yours, do you think start up on mine is different?

The only difference I can think you might think there is, is when I
said holding EDIT and EXIT doesn't work, but this was because it was
starting up into a preset that didn't have functioning system buttons.
When I tried it, it would do nothing apart from show 'off' in the
display when I let go of the buttons. 

I'm sure it would work now but I don't need to do it as I have it working.

Yes, it says 'Learn' when I start it up holding STORE and LEARN. Does
this put it into a mode that accepts SysEx on all MIDI-in ports (even
in USB mode?) or something?


My soldering skills aren't great, I've pretty much broken two
soldering iron tips somehow, and I usually can't heat the joints up
too well with my weak cheapo iron. I'm thinking of buying a decent one
some day, but I wouldn't like to flick and spill molten solder onto
the board in my BCR just yet, especially when I can do everything I
need to in S-3 now.

I'm just trying to figure out how to use .tx now, could you kick start
me by telling me what would work to get an encoder to send one CC when
turned anti-clockwise, and a different CC when turned clockwise?

I tried this, and a few variants of it but it doesn't output a thing
when turned:


$rev R1
$preset
  .name 'TRAKTOR (P2)            '
  .request off
  .egroups 4
  .fkeys off
  .lock on
  .init

$encoder 1
.tx ifn $B0 $00 $7F ifp $B0 $01 $7F
$end


What I was after was an encoder that when turned anticlockwise would
send a value of 127 on MIDI Ch 1, CC 1, and when turned clockwise
would send a value of 127 on MIDI Ch 1, CC 2.
