19 B-CONTROL FADER BCF2000/ROTARY BCR2000 User Manual
4.6 Additional functions
Temporary “Local O”:
“Local O” means that when you move a control element on the B-CONTROL,
no MIDI data is transmitted. If the position of a control element deviates from
the current value in the software, you can readjust its position until the correct
position is found by using this function. After that, the control can be moved
again without creating an audible value deviation.
Deviations between the position of a control element and the current parameter
value can occur if no parameter feedback is being sent while a value is being
changed in the software (e.g. mixer automation).
• Press the EXIT key and keep it pressed
• Move the desired control element until you get the correct value
• Let go of the EXIT key. The control element can now be moved again
Panic Reset:
This function resets the most important MIDI data to their factory settings.
• Press EDIT and keep it pressed
• Now press EXIT. The reset is performed as soon as you press EXIT.
“PAnC” (for “Panic”) appears in the display
• 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 dened
using the editor software). In this case, the MIDI device doesn’t send data;
the B-CONTROL requests them instead.
• 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.
• 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:
• Press the “ PRESET ►” key while the EDIT key is kept pressed
• If you want to cancel the dump, press the EXIT key
◊ 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.
Motor O Function (BCF2000):
The BCF2000 fader motors can be temporarily disengaged. To do that, one or
several fader(s) is / are assigned a key that disengages the fader’s motor for the
duration of the keystroke. All 20 programmable keys ( (2) and (9) ) are available.
• Press the EDIT key and keep it pressed
• Move the fader(s) whose motors you wish to disengage
• Press the key to which you want to assign the motor-o function
• Exit with EXIT
◊ The MIDI command assigned to a key remains preserved. This way,
that MIDI function can be used simultaneously with the fader motor
being disengaged when the key is pressed.
