jwolford Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 I've got a BCF 2000 that is working fine on most projects. It is running in Mackie Control Mode. I use LC XMU for monitoring channel activity sometimes. But sometimes I don't. The BCR has always just sort of worked without much hassle in Logic 8. Today, I am trying to build a project from the ground up. When I start with an empty project, the BCF picks up on channel 9, and I can find no way to toggle to the first bank of 1-8 channels. I pull up a previous project, and the BCF works fine, easily navigating by banks of 8 channels through the mixer. The settings look the same to me. Is there anything obvious I might be doing wrong? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwolford Posted April 10, 2008 Author Share Posted April 10, 2008 Actually, this appears to be happening with older sessions as well. I moved my studio recently, so the USB connections may be slightly different, possibly going into a different hub. But would that matter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwolford Posted April 11, 2008 Author Share Posted April 11, 2008 Bump.... Now it starts on channel 17. Clearly this user error on my part. Won't some kind soul show me the error of my ways? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjs Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 This may be a dumb question, but I wonder if the problem has anything to do with what bank the Novation is toggled to at the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwolford Posted April 13, 2008 Author Share Posted April 13, 2008 I'd call that a pretty damn good question. I hadn't considered the Novation being the source of the problem. I'll check it out next session. Thanks bjs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjs Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Well, I'll be interested to see what happens. I have a Remote 37SL but I have no idea how it works/plays with another controller in the system. You know how the tracks in the Arrange have a color strip running down the side that indicates they are being actively controlled by a certain device? Do you have a 2nd color strip for the BCF also? BTW, what do you think of the BCF? I am loathe to mention the B-word here in the hallowed halls of Logic, but jeez, motorized faders at that price point would be pretty darn cool.

jwolford Posted April 15, 2008 Author Share Posted April 15, 2008 Logic 8 does show 2 color strips running down the left side. I am new to Logic and did not realize that meant a controller was active. The BCF has been great for me, I stumbled across the complaints on the forum here before I posted. But most of that seemed to be in Logic 6/7. It's worked like a champ for me in Cubase and Live, and until recently worked fine in Logic 8. You really can't beat it for the money. Yeah, Behringer stuff is not of the highest quality. No one is disputing that. But it's worked well for me. I love the BCR. Still not sure what is up with this thing. I'll hold off on reporting until I've had more time to test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
