I just bought the behringer bcf2000.. Its probably my first real introduction to midi.. I did try a while back to get into using a keyboard as a midi trigger, but I gave up.... I bought it to control Adobe Audition 1.5 and when I set it up, I was pretty dissapointed... I guess its just not what I thought it was.
It was pretty confusing to set up... It wasn't plug and play.. I just expected it to work when I plugged it in.
To work with audition I have to use it in Sonar mode... so when I turn it on, I have to hold button under the 4th rotary encoder... That emulates mackie for sonar.... and allows it to work with audition.
Thats cool, the faders work, and the panning works.. the transport works.. But its just not complete. I have to play around with the buttons to trigger a record... to arm tracks and such..
Maybe I'll get used to it... maybe it works better with other multitrack software.. Has anyone had better experience?
Also.. since theres buttons for the transport control and preset button mappings... could I use it as a drum machine? I mean.. tap the transport buttons for snare, bass.. etc? That would be kind of cool, and would be one less thing I would have to obsess about buying.
It looks like it does alot of crap, and its limited by audition.
