B-CONTROL FADER BCF2000/ROTARY BCR2000 User Manual
Qual   (Quality Q) has the opposite effect from spread: the LED circle lights 
up gradually when you decrease the value. This setting is used for 
indicating filter quality with parametric equalizers.
Cut  
Cutoff is optimal for controlling the cutoff frequency of a low-pass filter, 
for example on a synthesizer. When the value is 0, all LEDs light up. 
The LEDs go out successively as you increase the value.
Damp   Damping: used for damping filters. When the value is 0, the outer right 
LED lights up. If the values are increased, the LED circle fans out from 
right to left until all LEDs light up. This way, increasing damping is best 
represented when a value goes up.
Encoder LED display (BCR2000):
1d  
(1 digit): Only one LED lights up at a time (standard setting).
1d- 
The LED circle operates similar to “1d”, but when the value is 0, 
no LED lights up.
Fader functions (BCF2000):
Move   If you move the fader by hand, it sends a new value directly. In doing so, 
jumps in the parameter value may occur if the current value doesn’t 
correspond to the fader position. This can sometimes happen because in 
this mode parameter feedback doesn’t cause fader movement.
P-UP   Pick up: The fader ignores the parameter feedback. However, 
value jumps are avoided because the fader only sends values if the 
current value (different from the fader setting) is exceeded.
Mot  
Motor: With parameter feedback, the motorized fader engages 
automatically and always indicates the current value.
Foot controller function:
Move   The pedal immediately sends value changes. Value jumps may result. 
P-UP   Pick-Up: The foot pedal become active and sends values only if the set 
value is exceeded.
SWITCH-type elements:
Switch-type control elements have three different modes: “Toggle On”, 
“Toggle Off” and “Increment”. Toggle On is similar to a switching function 
(e.g. a light switch). Each time you press the switch, the value sent alternates 
between the “on” value (set by encoder 4) and the “off” value (set by encoder 5). 
This setting is perfect for triggering drum loops from a sampler (press once = 
start, press again = stop).
The Toggle Off mode corresponds to a momentary-contact button, comparable 
to the switch of an electric door opener. The “on” value is sent only as long as 
the button is pressed. After releasing the button, the “off” value is sent. Use this 
control type to trigger short sound FX or samples (similar to using a keyboard) 
by sending Note On and Offs.
The Increment option only works for buttons, and only on CC, NRPN and after 
touch command types. This mode lets you gradually increase the controller 
value with each new keystroke. Set up increment size using encoder 7. If you 
repeatedly press a button, the value sent will be increased each time by the 
preset amount selected here. If increment size is set to “10,” values 0, 10, 20, 30 ... 
110, 120, 0, 10 and so on will be successively sent one after another. You can also 
enter negative values (e.g. -10) to achieve a gradual decrease in the value. If you 
use encoders 4 and 5 to delineate the lowest and the highest value that are to be 
sent, the values always stay within that range here as well. With this function, 
you have the option to use your B-CONTROL to control software buttons with 
more than two switch positions.
The value display activated using Push Encoder 8 is identical for switch and 
continuous elements. If this value display is active, the current value is indicated 
in the four-digit display when you actuate a control element. The display shows 
the preset number again as soon as you release the control element.
4.4  MIDI messages
Program Change: 
With the encoders 3 and 4 you can select bank numbers. If a MIDI device contains 
more than 128 presets / programs, first a bank change command has to be sent. 
Even though this is a controller command, it has to be sent before the program 
change (and is therefore adjustable) since it is linked to the preset change. 
If the bank select message is not needed, simply select “off”.
Encoder 5 selects the program number. If the selected control element is a 
control dial (continuous type), the program number is directly selected when 
turning the dial. Pressing the switch directly selects the assigned program 
number. This can be useful if you always want to start from the same preset.
Control Change CC:
A control change consists of a controller number and its respective value. 
Encoder 3 sets the controller number. With buttons, different values can be sent 
when pressing and releasing (to be set with encoders 4 and 5). This function is 
useful if fixed parameter settings are to be sent.
With faders and control dials (continuous type), the value range can be 
determined by using encoders 4 (minimum value) and 5 (maximum value).
◊ 
Alternatively, you can invert the value scale by assigning 127 as 
the minimum value and 0 as maximum value (scale inversion). 
A classic application is the draw bar control of virtual or digital organs 
or organ expanders. If assigning controller 7 (volume) to the faders of 
the BCF2000 this way, the signal becomes quieter when moving up the 
fader. Moving down the fader is similar to moving out the draw bars, 
and the volume increases.
NRPN:
A NRPN is needed if none of the 127 standardized controller numbers are 
available for a certain function.
Encoder 3 selects the parameter number. For assigning mixer faders, 
we recommend the high resolution (“Absolute 14 bit”), provided that the control 
hardware / software supports it.
Note:
Of course, a note can only be assigned to one SWITCH element. The note is set 
with encoder 3. Note C3 (C key) corresponds with note number 60. Encoder 4 sets 
the note velocity (note volume).
Pitch Bend:
Pitch bend is assignable to only one CONTINUOUS element. Since this is a type 
of command with its own status byte, selecting a MIDI channel (Encoder 2) 
and Range (Encoder 4) is sufficient.
After Touch:
Normally, “ALL” is selected here. This means that After Touch affects all notes 
equally (“Channel Pressure”). If you want to use a polyphonic After Touch 
(“Key Pressure”), the single note on which After Touch should have an effect 
can be selected using encoder 3. Since this process is only supported by a few 
tone generators, channel After Touch will be best most of the time. When a 
switch element has been selected, an “on” and “off” value can also be set 
(release dynamic). Therefore, you can limit the modulation range (FX depth) 
using After Touch.
