Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

I have posted a new mackie preset.
It includes stefan_soundstudies dpots for native live support of
device control, as well as his fix for the Returns button to stay lite
when on.

It also includes peter_resolent's idea for 8 cursor up/downs and clip
fire push buttons.  These 8 are on the top row of encoders, that can
be banked!  So they can control tracks 1-8 or 9-16 or 17-24 etc... by
using the back buttons.
They automatically select the track when you turn them, the move thru
the clips of a track, when you have selected the clip you want, push
the knob down and the selected clip will fire.  Opt + knob push = stop
selected clip.


Alas - rec arms were removed for this feature.
Perhaps we need a performance oriented mackie preset and a
recording/mixing oriented mackie preset...

Vpots were moved to the top row.  
No vpots when clip_fires selected.
D. pots are always available.

I will put this on the the genmce bcr2000 site soon.


Below is an image of the changes from the BCmanager program.

This file is also hosted at my BCR 2000 site.

I have a few more ideas I am trying to iron out
like moving the plugins sends and pans to the group encoder buttons.
If I did that I would at least remove 1 button push to get to a plugin
control using the vpots.
I'll post it when I get something going.

Can someone who knows Adobe Illustrator make a nice overlay?
I know there are some overlays posted for the bcr, I tried to edit
them, but I can figure out how to use AI.  I have it on this work
machine, but I have never used it. I can open the layouts but I can't
figure out how to add text where it should go, can someone make a nice
overlay for version 5.0, I will add it to the download.

Thanks James,
You have found some errors in my syx files.

I will upload a new version that will contain presets for vpots on top
as well as faders...
I just can't decide which I like better.
I will upload in a few, revising the document now.

The problem with the leds on the vpots is they put out relative data
and that really can't be shown very well on the leds.
The faders are will show levels.
I will upload shortly.
Kip

getting into dj'ing with Ableton using my BCR2000 in Mackie Mode. I've
installed this v.5 and I'm starting to get the hang of it. It's so
cool being able to move around and trigger clips without using the mouse.

the 'clip fire' thing only works in preset 26, making me think that
preset 26 is actually the new one.

This seems a bit of a shame as they are quite useful?

main part of the console) don't seem to do anything either. In the
youtube video they control the faders, but whilst the leds go around
they don't actually appear to do anything in ableton.
