BCR2000
Requirements/Setting up:
• The BCR2000 must have firmware v1.07 or later installed - refer to
http://www.behringer.com for more info.
• Before you add the BCR2000 as a control surface in Reason, please
make sure that the BCR2000 is set to Device ID 1. This is done in the
global setup menu: Hold down the EDIT key and press the STORE
key, release both keys and then use Encoder 5 to set the Device ID.
Press EXIT to leave the global setup menu.
• If you connect the BCR2000 via USB, you need to set it to operating
mode "U-1": Hold down the EDIT key and press the STORE key, re-
lease both keys and then use Encoder 1 to set the operating mode.
Press EXIT to leave the global setup menu.
• If you connect the BCR2000 via MIDI, you need to use two MIDI ca-
bles: one from the "IN" port to the out port on your MIDI interface,
and one from the "OUT B/THRU" port to the in port on your MIDI in-
terface. Then set the BCR2000 to operating mode "S-3".
• Reason will automatically find the BCR2000 if you click the Auto-
detect button on the Control Surfaces and Keyboards page in the
Preferences.
About the controls:
All encoders and buttons on the BCR2000 are available as control surface items
in Reason (except for the four Encoder Group buttons).
The BCR2000 has up to 56 rotary encoders - the three lower rows (called bottom
row, middle row and top row) and four groups of eight "push encoders" at the top.
You select which group to use by pressing t he Encoder Group buttons below the
display (this affects the push encoders only). How many groups are available
when you are using the default mapping depends on which Reason device has
MIDI input from the BCR - devices with few parameters may only use the first
group, while devices with many parameters may use all four groups.
About the default mapping:
D The following buttons in the right part of the panel are used for glo-
bal functions:
Edit Button: Loop On/Off

the track list)

D For devices with patches, you can use Button 8 in the upper and
lower row to select the previous or next patch, respectively.
D For effect devices, Button 7 in the upper row controls the Bypass/
On/Off state.
D Where applicable, bottom row encoder 8 controls the master level.
D Mixer 14:2
The Preset left/right buttons select which mixer channels should be con-
trolled (channel 1-7 or channel 8-14). Bottom Row Encoder 8 always controls
the master level.
Bottom Row Encoders 1-7 control levels.
Middle Row Encoders 1-7 control pan.
Top Row Encoders 1-7 control Aux 1 send levels and Top Row Encoder 8
controls Aux 1 return level.
Push Encoders 1:1-1:7 control Aux 2 send levels and Push Encoder 1:8 con-
trols Aux 2 return level.
Push Encoders 2:1-2:7 control Bass.
Push Encoders 3:1-3:7 control Treble.
If you select Push Encoder Group 4, the LED rings around the encoders will
serve as peak meters - you cannot use the encoders in this mode.
The lower buttons 1-7 control Mute and the upper buttons 1-7 control Solo.
D Mixer 6:2
Bottom Row Encoders 1-6 control levels and Bottom Row Encoder 8 is mas-
ter level.
Middle Row Encoders 1-6 control pan.
Top Row Encoders 1-6 control Aux Send and Top Row Encoder 8 is Aux Re-
turn.
If you select Push Encoder Group 1, the LED rings around the encoders will
serve as peak meters - you cannot use the encoders in this mode.
Lower row buttons control Mute and upper row buttons control Solo.
