Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

I seem stuck here, .txinterval 2 is awesome for mackie emulation,
but sucks for vfx editing, errors out all the time it likes
.txinterval of 100 but his is way to sluggish for Mackie emulation!

Is there any way to have .txinterval be a $preset var instead of
$global or is there a way to change the $global param with each preset
change.
Any other solution, besides buying another bcr2000!

Thanks
Kip

My pseudo blog continues -
Ok from pg 28 BC MIDI Implementation.pdf here located in Documents
section here.
"The table below contains the factory defaults for the global
settings. For convenience, it also indicates
the push encoders via which you can edit the settings manually on the
BCF/BCR in Global Setup mode
(accessed via EDIT + STORE)."
TransmissionInterval = push encoder 8.
So it can be changed manually.  Perhaps that is enough.
I will notice that something is not right then just change it with
that knob.  
Answered my own question, I suppose.  Sorry to waste the bandwidth,
however, someone might want to know my foolishness.
Cheers.

Yet another excellent question. My head is hurting....

In the $preset section there is a command .request
This is used to send a midi message when the preset is selected
The midi message is in the save form as the control .tx

$preset
.
.
   .request on
  .tx  your midi message

If you use a mode that allows you to feed Midi back to the BCR (or the
Midi Thru on the VFX) you could send

$rev R1
$global
   .txinterval  2
$end

in the .tx command

I'll leave it to you to work out the sysex header etc for the BCR.
You could get it from Mark's great document on the BC Midi
Implementation or
you could use MidiOx and send the strings from my editor

I haven't tried it.  Let me know how you get on

All the best
Royce

Great idea, Royce, to loop back ".request", although I don't know if it 
works either! (In any case it seems a pretty hefty hacking job...)

Another way might be to rewrite the firmware, allowing .txinterval in 
$preset, but don't hold your breath for that...

Mark.
