Every control is backed by LEDs that show the +current value. As a pure MIDI controller it contains no interfaces for audio or microphones. + +The controller can be be configured extensively. +It offers 32 presets that may be programmed by the user. + +.. versionadded:: 2.3 + +Compatibility +------------- + +This controller is a class compliant USB MIDI and audio device, so it can be used without any +special drivers on GNU/Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows. + +Setup +----- +Controller Preset +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +The default mapping works out-of-the-box for the factory settings of controller preset 1. + +If you don't want to use this preset, you can choose one of the following options: + +#. Load the dump file ``bcr_Only_Controllers.syx`` via Sysex to any other preset slot and update + the preset number in the ``init`` function in the file ``Behringer-BCR2000-scripts.js``. + The dump file and instructions how to install it in the controller is available on the + manufacturer's webpage. +#. Factory reset the controller. + +Button Behaviour +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +It is recommended, but not required, to change the button behaviour from *Toggle On* (default) +to *Toggle Off*. Both behaviours send an ``On`` message on button press, but the action to +send an ``Off`` message is different: *Toggle Off* responds to a button release while *Toggle On* +ignores the release and requires a second press. To change the behaviour: + +#. Hold :hwlabel:`EDIT`, press a button, then release both +#. Turn the :hwlabel:`MODE` encoder until the display shows ``toFF`` +#. Press the :hwlabel:`EXIT` button + +To make the change persistent, press *Store* twice.
