1. Check the connection between cubase and your BCR. Open a new project, create a midi channel, and set the input to "Port 1". If there is no Port 1 option, check the physical connecion between BCR and computer. Download the latest firmware (v1.1) from
www.behringer.com.
2. Next, go into cubase and from the devices menu, select device setup.
3. Click the + sign in the top left hand corner and select generic device.
4. Select the "MIDI input" to Port 1. Leave the output as "Not Connected"
5. The devices window should be split into 2. The top section has 6 columns. For simplicity, only columns 1, 3 and 4 will be modified. Unless you know exactly what you are doing DO NOT CHANGE THE OTHER COLUMNS, it will cause all sorts of problems later, and may stop you BCR functioning as you want it to.
6. On your BCR, asign the bottom row of dials the following parameters; MIDI channels 1-8, all with cc7. Refer to the instruction manual for how to do this.
7. Create enough entries in the top window using the "add" button for all the faders and buttons on the BCR, or as many as you want to use. Don't forget there are 4 different encoder groups.
8. Assign each of the dials on your BCR 2000 to a different entry using the "learn" feature. Click on the entry, turn the dial and then press learn. The Midi Channel and address may automatically update, though don't worry if they dont. Leave all existing entries as they are, only edit ones you have added.
9. Give all the enties memorable names, otherwise they will all be called "fader 1" **CONFUSING**.
10. The top window should now have separate entries for each of the dials you want to use.
11. Click export to save all your hard work.
