B-CONTROL FADER BCF2000/B-CONTROL ROTARY BCR2000
GS/XG:
Encoder 3 directly selects the most important Main Control
parameters. The display indicates them as a (shortened) text
(table 4.2). In this case, these are CCs or NRPNs (no SysEx
data).
Table 4.2: GS/XG Parameter Main Controls
Encoders 5 and 6 let you confine or invert each controllers
value range.
4.3.3 Settings in the global setup menu
Settings that have an effect on all presets are made in the global
setup menu.
s Keep the EDIT key pressed and at the same time press the
STORE key.
s You are now in the global setup menu, and can let go of
both keys.
s Now, turn the push encoders 1 to 6 to get the desired setting.
This is how the push encoders are allocated:
1 Operating Mode U-1 ... U-4, S-1 ... S-
3
2 Global RX Channel Off, 1 ... 16
3 Footsw itch Auto/Normal/Inverted
4 Start Preset 1 ... 32, Last
5 Device ID 1 ... 16
6 SysEx Dump Single/All

Operating Mode:
The operating modes are described in chapter 4.1. You can
select USB modes U-1 to U-4 and stand-alone modes S-1 to S-
3.
Global RX Channel:
The B-CONTROL receives program change commands on this
channel.
Footswitch type:
Because there are different kinds of footswitches (depending
on their switching behavior), the polarity of the footswitch connector
can be set (normal/inverted), or it can be automatically detected
during power startup (auto recognition).
Start Preset Number:
Each of the 32 presets can be selected as the startup preset.
Additionally, with the Last function, at startup you have the option
to always load the preset that was used last.
Device ID Number:
You should change the ID number settings only if you work
with several BCF2000s or BCR2000s at the same time, and
problems with recognizing the correct device start occurring during
a SysEx Dump procedure.
+ Please keep in mind that SysEx Dumps can only be
received at the device number to which they were sent!
SysEx Dump Select:
Turning push encoder 6 lets you select between the current
preset (single) or the entire memory contents of the 32 presets
(all) should be sent as a SysEx dump. One press on encoder 6
triggers the dump.
s To exit the global setup menu, press EXIT.
+ The settings in the global setup menu take effect
immediately and do not have to be separately stored.
4.3.4 Additional functions
Panic Reset:
This function resets the most important MIDI data to their factory
settings.
s Press EDIT and keep it pressed.
s Now press EXIT. The reset is performed as soon as you
press EXIT. PAnC (for Panic) appears in the display.
s As soon as the reset is over, your B-CONTROL goes
automatically into the play mode, and the current preset is
shown in the display.
Data Request:
Current value settings of the MIDI device connected to your
B-CONTROL can be transmitted to your B-CONTROL using the
data request function (provided that the MIDI device supports
this function, and a request command was defined using the editor
software). In this case, the MIDI device doesnt send data; the B-
CONTROL requests them instead.
s Press the LEARN key while the EDIT key is kept pressed.
The request takes place, and the B-CONTROL indicates
the controller values of the receiving MIDI device on the
LED ring or through fader positions.
Snapshot Send:
A Snapshot Send lets you send all current controller values in
order to transmit the B-CONTROL settings to the connected MIDI
device.
s Press the PRESET key while the EDIT key is kept
pressed. The B-CONTROL now sends the current controller
settings.
Single Preset Dump:
In addition to the SysEx Dump function in the global setup menu,
the following key combination lets you send all settings of the
current presets:
s Press the PRESET key while the EDIT key is kept
pressed.
+ Snapshot Send and Single Preset Dump differ in the
kind of data that is being sent: With Snapshot Send,
only current control values are transmitted in order to
synchronize them with the connected MIDI device. With
Single Preset Dump, the entire contents of the current
preset including the current control assignments are
sent. With this function, you can easily archive certain
presets, or swap them with other B-CONTROL users.
