Signal routing
5.4
With the USB interface, you can record and play back up to four audio signals
simultaneously. The signal routing is specified by the settings of the applied
software (for example, TRAKTOR 3 LE), Control Panel and the state of the buttons
on the device.

In Windows, the possibilities of signal routing depend on the chosen driver

driver (Windows)
The WDM/MME driver supports playback/recording of 2 audio signals.
For 2-channel recording you can select input IN A or IN B in the WDM/MME
window of the control panel. When you choose IN A, you can also determine the
signal to be recorded (Phono A or MIC).

With Mac, the BCD3000 always runs in the “STANDARD” mode, which means
that only the input signals can be configured. For channel IN A, you can assign
Mic or Phono A with MIDI commands in an appropriate software (see Table 6.7).

MIDI Control
6.
All control functions of the BCD3000 are sent to your computer as MIDI data.
The Musical Instruments Digital Interface is a generic, non-manufacturer-specific
standard that enables communication between electronic musical instruments.
Although the BCD3000 is not equipped with the “classic” 5-pin MIDI connectors,
it still uses the MIDI protocol for data transmission via USB. Thus, the BCD3000
can also control third-party software, as long as it is able to “speak” MIDI. In turn,
the BCD3000 can receive MIDI data and use them to show the switching status of
the button LEDs.

the BCD3000 can receive MIDI data and use them to show the switching status of
the button LEDs.
Primarily, two MIDI data types are used: Control Change (CC no.) and Note
commands (Note no.). The CC commands allow values, which change
continuously, to be transmitted in real time. Button functions are sent with
Note commands. You can match the MIDI commands to the software functions
in the DJ software of your choice. Please note that the different behaviors of
the LED control and the buttons’ Toggle On/Off mode depend on the selected
GLOBAL MODE, as explained in Chapter 4.2 under “The MIDI Tab”.

Sending control change functions
6.1
All rotary knobs, faders, wheels and the crossfader are control elements that
send CC data. A CC number is assigned to each control element; the transmitted
absolute values range between 0 and 127. The Scratch wheels are the exception,
owing to the fact that continuous encoders do not transmit absolute values.
They send value changes (increment = +1, decrement = -1) when used.
The following table shows the regular assignment of CC numbers categorized in
function groups.
