+Behringer BCF-2000 Faders Controller
+
+ 
+
+
+ The Behringer BCF-2000 Fader Controller is a control surface with 8 motorized
+ faders, 8 rotary encoders and 30 push buttons. The device is a class
+ compliant USB Midi Interface and also has standard Midi DIN IN/OUT/THRU ports.
+ The device has included a Mackie/Logic Control Emulation Mode since firmware v1.06.
+ If you're devices firmware is older than v1.06 it will require an update before
+ Mackie Control Emulation will work as described here.
+
+
+ 
+
+
+
+ In order to put the controller into Mackie/Logic control mode turn on the
+ unit while holding third button from the left in the top most row
+ of buttons (under the rotary encoder row). Hold the button down until EG
+ or edit global mode is displayed on the LCD screen of the unit. The global parameters
+ can then be edited using the 8 rotary encoders in the top row.
+
+
+
+ Encoder #1 sets the operating mode and should be set to U-1 or
+ USB mode 1 if using with a USB cable connection.
+
+ Encoder #3 sets the foot switch mode and should most likely be set to
+ Auto to detect how the foot switch is wired.
+
+ Encoder #5 sets the device id, if you are using only 1 device the id
+ should be set to ID 1. If you are using multiple BCF/BCR2000 each
+ device is required to be set up sequentially and one at a time.
+
+ Encoder #7 controls the MIDI Dead Time or the amount of milliseconds
+ after a move has been made that the device ignores further changes, this
+ should be set to 100.
+
+ Encoder #8 controls the MIDI message Send Interval in milliseconds
+ and should be set to 10
+
+
+ To exit the EG mode press the Exit button. The device is now
+ ready to use with Ardour.
+
+
+Modes of Operation
+
+ 
+
+
+ The four buttons arranged in a rectangle and located under the Behringer logo
+ are the mode selection buttons in Logic Control Emulation Mode,
+ currently Ardour has implemented support for two of these modes.
+
+
+The surface can be broken into 8 groups of controls.
+
+
+
+ - The rotary encoders at the top of the device
+ - The first row of buttons under the encoders
+ - The second row of buttons under the encoders
+ - The row of motorized faders
-
+
-
+ The group of 4 buttons at the top right that will be
+ referred to here as the Shift Group
+
+ -
+ The group of 4 buttons under the Shift Group
+ referred to here as the Mode Group
+
+ -
+ The group of 2 buttons under the Mode Group
+ referred to here as the Select Group
+
+ -
+ The group of 4 buttons under the Select Group
+ referred to here as the Transport Group
+
+
+
+Mixer Pan Mode
+
+ 
+
+
+ This is the standard work mode that organizes the control surface to emulate
+ a standard mixer layout where controls for each track/bus are arranged vertically.
+ The order of the faders is either controlled by the order of the tracks in the
+ mixer or can be set manually by the user.
+
+
+ - Encoders
+ - Mixer Pans. The red LEDs show the amount of pan left or right
+ - First Row of Buttons
+ - Mixer Mutes. The button led lights if the track is currently muted
+ - Second Row of Buttons
+ - Select Active Track/Bus. Currently selected track/bus is indicated by the button led
+ - Faders
+ - Mixer Gains
+ - Shift Group
+ -
+ The top and bottom left buttons are the simply shifts to change the function of other buttons
+
+ -
+ The top right is the Fine Control button that allows the increment values sent by
+ by rotary encoders and faders to be a small value for more precise editing. This button
+ can also act as a shift button.
+
+ -
+ The bottom right is the Global Shift button that allows you to change back to the
+ standard Mixer Pan view from other views and modes. This button can also act as a shift button.
+
+ - Mode Group
+ - The top two buttons functions are not currently implemented in Ardour.
+ - The bottom left button sets the device to Pan mode and should currently be lit
+ -
+ The bottom right button sets the device to Send mode but will only allow the switch
+ if the currently selected track/bus has a send or sends to control.
+
+ - Select Group
+ -
+ In this mode they function as bank select left and right. If your session has more than 8 tracks
+ the next set of 8 tracks is selected with the right button and the faders will move to match the
+ current gain settings of that bank of 8 tracks/busses. If the last bank contains less than 8
+ tracks/busses the unused faders will move to the bottom and the pan lights will all turn
+ off. An unlimited amount of tracks can be controlled with the device.
+
+ - Transport Group
+ - The upper left button controls Rewind.
+
- The upper right button controls Fast Foreword
+
- The lower left button controls stop
+ - The lower right button controls play
+
+Send Mode
+
+ 
+
+
+ Send mode allows for the top row of encoders to control the sends for a selected channel.
+ One interesting option is to flip the controls from the encoders to the faders by pressing
+ the shift 1 button and the global view button at the same time.
+
+
+ - Encoders
+ -
+ In send mode, the encoders control sends from left to right instead of mixer pans.
+ If there are less than 8 sends the behavior of the encoder will be to continue controlling
+ the mixer pan. Visually it's indicated by the change in the LED from originating at the 12
+ o'clock position to originating at the 7 o'clock position. If FLIP is pressed
+ the encoder will control the mixer gain for the selected track/bus.
+
+ - First row of buttons
+ - No Change
+ - Second row of buttons
+ - No Change.
+ - Faders
+ -
+ No change unless FLIPis pressed then it controls the send for the selected track/bus.
+
+ - Shift Group
+ - No Change
+ - Select Group
+ - No Change
+ - Transport Group
+ - No Change
+
+Mixer Pan While Holding Shift 1
+
+ 
+
+
+ The operations of various buttons change while holding down the Shift 1 button
+
+
+ - Encoders
+ - No Change
+ - First row of buttons
+ - These now control the Soloing of each track/bus in the current bank
+ - Second row of buttons
+ - These now control the Enable Record for each track
+ - Faders
+ - No Change
+ - Shift Group
+ - No change
+ - Mode Group
+ - No Change
+ - Select Group
+ -
+ These now change the current bank of tracks being controlled over by
+ one. So if you where controlling tracks 1-8 a push the right
+ button the surface would now control tracks 2-9 pressing the left
+ would then shift back to controlling tracks 1-8.
+
+ - Transport Group
+ - The upper left now controls turning on and off Loop mode.
+ -
+ The upper right now toggles
+ Click.
+
+ - The lower left toggles Replace.
+ -
+ The lower right toggles
+ Global Record.
+
+
+Mixer Pan While Holding Shift 2
+
+ 
+
+
+ The operations of various buttons change while holding down the Shift 2 button
+

+ - Encoders
