I’m using the bcr2000 in generic mode, and I’m able to set which knob to control a particular plug function knob/parameter in particular track. However, in a practical world, I have different tracks with different plugs in different slot, if i map one knob to control certain plug parameter in one track, that knob wouldn’t be able to control even the same plug on different track?
I’m using Mac, how can I use that in mackie control mode?
Yes, i know Cubase support mackie control protocol, however Behringer BCR200 doesn’t natively does. The Mackie Control Emulation for BCR2000 in the wild only supports Windows and that is the problem…
I have used the BCF2000 in Mackie Mode. When the device was started up in that mode I used the Mackie Remote device in Cubase. (I believe I had to update the BCF firmware to 1.0.6 or 1.0.7).
In addition to the standard B-CONTROL mode, since v1.06 there are four socalled ‘emulation modes’ for the BCF2000:
Mackie® Control Mapping for Steinberg®* Cubase* SX and Nuendo* [MC C]
Logic* Control Mapping for Emagic® Logic Audio* [LC]
Mackie® Control Mapping for Cakewalk®* Sonar* 3 [MCSo]
Mackie® Baby HUITM Mapping for various applications [bhuI], e.g. Digidesign®* Pro Tools*, Steinberg®* Cubase* SX/Nuendo* (easier setting than Mackie® Control Protocol)
How to switch the BCF 2000?
Push & hold the desired mode button (button under the 2nd knob, for MC mode)
Switch ON the BCF2000 and wait until the selected mode is indicated
in the display
Have you double checked the mode in which the BCR is starting up (should be MC-C), and what is the firmware version on the device currently? (should be 1.06, as stated by Martin)
The BCR and BCF are the same except for the faders/pots being different.
That said, without LED strips on the BCR/BCF it’s gonna be hard to use it as an MC.
I have try the mentioned method, however, i found that when i press the second left (MCC mode) button before start up, i can only see the firmware version( v1.10). Interestingly, if i push the most left (UC Mode) button, i can see the “UC” came up after the firmware version indicator.
The Problem tickle me is, i can’t do mixing with the controller with a normal track count project (around 40), i have to choose the “VST1-16” or whatever preset back and forth soooooo many times. I had a Mackie HUI before, whatever plugs pop up, I’m able to control it via the V-port without mapping anything, thats what i want the BCR2000 capable to do.
