There's always some clever way someone's worked out.

But few synths will do this, though they will accept controller input, of course. Ideally, you want the synth to tell you what its current params are whenever you select a patch, so the control surface settings will 'jump' to the right values. But the problem of 'local echo' will still be there. If you want to control external HARDWARE units, the documentation will of course be a lot better. Most soft synths are also woefully ill-documented for example, NI's stuff - they may, or may not accept CCs, NRPNs etc but best of luck finding out!. Unfortunately the annoyance you will have is that the controller will only work in half-duplex mode, unless you can make the synth echo any changes to its params back OUT via MIDI. Then you can daisy-chain it through MIDI & feed it back into Sonar that way. As such, the BCR2000 need not be USB-connected because you can configure it in standalone mode so it issues MIDI messages. It might be possible - I would not daisy-chain them, but set them up independently.

If you are using the BCR via a separate HW MIDI interface (not the BCF's), then this is a moot point as it would obviously work just like any other controller hooked up via MIDI. Re: Behringer BCR32, BCR 2000 Replacement Post by dgl Sun 12:35 pm Of course other Behringer products do have RTP Midi/OSC, namely the X-Touch, X32 and X-AIR series mixers, I'm guessing it was omitted to keep to a certain price point which is fair in my opinion. However, the notes on the Mackie emulation state that the mode can't be changed when using the emulation, so the question is, which "mode" is implemented with the mackie emulation, since it can't be changed.
Bcr 2000 running out of cc parameters manual#
I have a BCR and the manual states you can chain a BCF and a BCR together via MIDI by selecting a certain mode. I would like to know if this is possible, for then it would be interesting for me to buy the BCR as well (I only have BCF momentarily).ĭoes anyone have experience with this configuration? Would it be possible to control sonar plugins (softsynths) using the following configuration?īehringer BCF 2000, connected through USB, mackie control emulation mode (no softsynth control)īehringer BCR 2000, connected through midi, together with midi keyboard, controlling soft synth parameters.
