Hi !

They don't work under 64 bit OS's and the generic drivers installed by Vista 
and 7 are NOT multiclient, as opposed to the Behringer driver. It becomes a 
problem when the BCF/R has to communicate with more than one app (like, for 
instance, Cubase plus the BCFViewer when using a BCF in MC emulation). I got 
around the problem by using it via MIDI cables with my e-mu 1212m soundcard, 
as it has multiclient MIDI drivers.

Cheers.
Jay
