Serial Connection of 2 BCR and 2 BCF 2000 controller

2015-05-17 by Pippo Pippi

Hi, I'm a Wonnabe in the DAW-Controlling and Computer music.
I've any vintage synthetizer  and I'like to learn the use of a DAW as Ableton/Cubase/Logic and I would ply any Software Instruments as Reason to Improve my musical options.
I need tu build a clone of the Roland PG1000 to controll my D550, and I like to create a hardware controller for my Waldorf Pulse, my Korg Ex-8000 and my Roland xv5080. Moreover I'd like to use the same controller to pilote the softwareinstruments, that I will use.
With 2 BCR2000 and 2 BCF2000 I could habe enaugh phisical controll to realize what ich shall do, but ich can't underständ from the usermanual, ich I can conntect only 2 B-Controll (1 in USB U4 mode and 1 in Standalone mode) or I can do it with 2 BCR-2000 and 2 BCF2000 at the same time. 

I haven't bought just any controller and I need your tipp to understand, if the Behringher products are what I need.
Bye

As you can see from recent messages you can chain (connect up) multiple BC units.

You can also connect all of them via USB to your computer.
Or you can arrange them in any combination.

To get you started with your synths have a look in the file section for some presets for the BC for your particular synths.

If the files are System Exclusive (sysex) *.syx you can use MidiOx if you have a PC or the Mac equivalent, or a DAW to send the files.

If the files are *.BC2 files (theses are just text files in the BC language) then you can use Mark's PC editor.

The next step is to get Mark's document on the BC language and modify or create your own BC presets.

Feel free to post any questions you have here.

All the best
Royce

Actually I just read the thread - for sending sysex on MacOS use SysEx Librarian - works a treat. Sorry for blind posting.

MidiPipe is a quite good alternative to MidiOx for MacOS.
