In USB mode 1, the B-CONTROL is connected to your PC by using a USB cable. 
It sends MIDI data and receives parameter feedback from the computer, 
provided that the music software you are controlling supports these functions. 
This way, current parameter values can be shown on the LED, or can be indicated 
by the fader position.
All MIDI ports of the B-CONTROL are off. This mode is optimal for controlling 
software tools (mixers, sequencers, synths, VST-effects etc.) if you don’t need 
any additional MIDI ports. This mode is also very useful if you are already using 
other multi-channel MIDI interfaces on your computer and can’t address any 
additional ones.
USB-Mode U-2: 
Fig. 4.2: Routing and use in USB mode 2
Your B-CONTROL sends MIDI data to the computer and receives parameter 
feedback, provided that the software you are controlling supports this function. 
MIDI IN and OUT A are available as a 16-channel MIDI interface for your computer. 
OUT B functions as MIDI THRU and forwards MIDI IN data unchanged. OUT B is 
not accessible from the computer, and doesn’t send any control data from the 
B-CONTROL. This mode is ideal for applications in which you control music 
software on your computer and at the same time need a USB MIDI interface with 
one IN and one OUT. Additionally, a MIDI keyboard can be tapped into at the MIDI 
THRU (OUT B) connector. This way, you can use a master keyboard to import your 
arrangements into the sequencer, or to play back software synths. OUT A controls 
a hardware sampler, while a MIDI expander (sound generator without a 
keyboard; e.g. a rack synthesizer or a pure preset unit), an effects processor or 
similar can be connected at OUT B, whereby it is directly controlled only from the 
keyboard or is controlled only via program changes.
