This gives in basic 44 notes and with the 4 encoder group selection 92 notes. But this require a special setup with the Behringer bc-manager. Note additional 10 button can be made with the “Preset ”, Edit, Exit, Store, Learn, Encoder group 1, 2, 3, 4. To get an overview over the BCF2000 used above, here is listed with the controls available.īuttons between encoders and faders 2 x 8 Buttons In total this give a possibility of mapping 768 External commands (127+0) x (5 Pages + Shift Page). The fader and button can this way have multiple functionality. It could be that on page 1 the faders are mapped to sub master intensity and on page 2 the same faders are mapped to gobo control. By pressing these two buttons the mapping page will change and thereby the functionality of the BCF. This means that one button is assigned to select page1 and an other to. The pages selection is also controlled by the Midi interface.
To gain as much flex ability as possible in the control, these 127 note’s can be mapped to 5 + shift pages. In total there are more than 500 External Commands that can be mapped to the midi note’s. Midi-ox setupĪs mentioned above FreeStyler can handle 127 + 0 note’s. In general most software that can manipulate midi signals can be used. A google search will be useful to find options. and this requires some extra resources from the PC and it can slow down the response time on external controls.Īs alternative software Bome’s midi translator can be used along with others. The midi connection is then done by the Midi yoke which makes a virtual (s.w.) connection between Midi-ox and Freestyler. This can be done with a program like MIDI-OX. In this case the midi signals from the different controllers are connected via an usb hub to the PC and must be merged together with a small program.

It could be if more controllers from various manufactures are to be used together. The situation where only usb are to be used as cable connection is a bit more tricky. So if the PC has a midi interface if will be obviously to use that one.Īlternative the BCF can be interconnected with Midi cables and connected to the PC with usb. In the example bellow BCF2000 has a midi and a usb cable interface. In many cases more than one controller are wanted and though it is midi interface the cable connection can be something else. It just need to be able to generate a midi signal with the correct type of note's.įor FreeStyler the midi commands is default “Note-on” bud this can be changed to other in the Note setup menu. Controllers comes in many shapes some with faders, some just with buttons, you can even use a standard midi keyboards that is used for playing music. As MIDI controllers go, anything that can generate a midi signal can be used.
