Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

HELP! 

I've just purchased a BCR2000 and am having a nightmare with it. All I
want to do is control VST instruments and VST FX. Could someone please
tell me the simplest way to set it up with Cubase SX3?

Any help much appreciated.
Colin

Maybe this one: http://www.midevice.com/Products.aspx?ProductID=0

there is one of small tutorial which was written by me for bcf users on 
cubase on kvr have a look at it its the same for bcr too i post it here

 am able to control all the vst parameters with the knobs in the bcf 
and volume by faders for the start. i am also able to control the mixer 
in host cubase in same mode (ncc) 

for it the requirement is to have midiyoke and huskervu ( a software 
similar to bcfview). install midiyoke 

first switch on the bcf in nnc mode by pressing 2nd button while 
powerup. now start the huskervu application( for installing this free 
utility u need ms net framework 1.1.432 which u can download by 
googling). then power up cubase sx3/ nuendo 3. in the device tab and 
device setup add mackie control as remote. configure input: bcf2000 
(01) and output as midiyoke:1 . rightclick on huskervu blue interface 
configure midi input as midiyoke:1 and midi output as bcf 2000 

now press ok on device setup in cubase. huskervu must show cubase 
version and pan left right or something. 

next step is to add a newproject and midi track . in track parameters 
if u have a midi keyboard configure it as in and vst as out 

huskervu will show your miditracks and what vst u have chosen vst1 on 
and vst name 

now for controlling the vst parameter all u need to do is press first 
encoder button and learn . huskervu will show the parameters u wanna 
constrol and page no like 01/03 . press second encoder button to switch 
the page and parameter and then turn the corresponding knobs in bcf to 
change the parameter. when u turn the knobs the knob in vst also turns 
and thats all. 


i am yet to use the generic mode. i dunno the pros and cons of mackie 
emulation. i just know only what i have told u people. i suppose this 
is the same method used in bcr2000 as well. and i know its a little 
hard in configuring and knowing about bcf as the manual is the most 
stupidest thing i have seen in the world. speaks volumes of theory and 
and absolutely no practical applicability. 

if some one can write details about how to configure this bcf 2000 in 
generic mode in a very simple way right from scratch one i would be so 
thankful. as for now i am watching this thread. if u have any 
clarification please do pm me or send a mail to draskum@.... ill 
be more than willing to share what i know

Thank you ever-so much just tried the trial version and its brilliant.
I've ordered the full version, it's much less of a pain than the
generic remote.

Thanks again

I am happy, that I could help. I discovered MCX recently and I think,
I will order it, too. I searched a few weeks for a free alternative,
but I found no substitute. It seems, that MCX is the most ergonomic
and host independent solution to control VST plugins.

How do they send you the full version? On CD or via eMail/weblink?

Hey guys! did you have a look at Asseca's mGUI? www.asseca.com

:)

Hi, 

They send you a key via mail. I may have been a bit hasty in buying it
tho, I havn't had chance to give it a good test yet but I may have
already encountered a few problems. I'm going to give it a good trial
at the weekend and let you know the results.

They have a very speedy forum which is great so if my suspicions are
correct I'll find out if they are going to deal with the issues in the
next version, saying all that I may just be using it wrong, there is
at present no documentation,(they're still working on it).

I ordered and purchased it today after hesitating the last days. I
hope it will speed up my workflow. I just received the key, so we both
can explore it at the weekend. ;-)

Yeah, I read the whole threads there (aren't too much...), including
yours from yesterday... ;-)

Yes, of course I tried this! I have also installed stutterbrain's
generic remote solution, BCR Performer (which has a nice GUI) as well
as some VST plugin chainers.

I tried the demo of MCX and it seems to work similar to Novation's
"Automap Universal", just without the "auto"... ;-)
