Behringer BCR2000 Is Putty In Bill Holland's Hands

After watching this video, you'll realize at least one truth about the Behringer BCR2000 rotary controller: it is not a belly-itch-shifter. Using it to fool with the pitch shift and stutter effects in the master effects bus section of Ableton Live, Bill Holland renews his vows of love with the mass-produced USB MIDI controller that bears Uli's family name. Truly, what's in a name? Would a Chinese-made rotary controller by any other name feel as cheap?

thanks. The song is actually a remix by Kanji Kinetic, who I had interview that last week so I figured I would throw one of his remixes in a video. Thanks for the comment!

Sry but the bcr 2000 is not mapping with midi funktion of ableton, it does'nt work

[marshallgraham1]

Im very new to ableton, i have a bcr2000 tho, im wondering do you havea saved midi mapthat i could download, imthinking it would be much easier to learn fromscratch with my bcr pre mapped,rather then having to learn everythign and then have to assign it all and then re learning it all on the bcr hehehe,, would be greatly apreciated mate,, marshallgraham1@yahoo.com

it would be really useful but it would look so ugly compared to my monome :(((

I tried setting up a setting up a simple beat repeat by taking the "beat repeat" folder. However it messes up the tracks i'm using so how can I just set it up in order to just have repeat + grid to control to beat repeat 1/2, 1/4, 1/8 and so on?

(That's a lot of beat repeat in one sentence)

Quote: "Would a Chinese-made rotary controller by any other name feel as cheap?" the way I understand the english language, I would use this type of frasing to express my dislike of the poor quality of something, being worst than anything else being made in China... If I was Behringer, that would be taken as an insult... Have you done any more Behringer reviews since then?

[worldfullofcunts]

belly-itch-shifter? WTF does that mean lol

[worldfullofcunts]

belly-itch-shifter? What the fuck does that mean?

@gearwire Great vid man! Can you use this device with the likes of Serato Scratch Live? Or if I recorded a mix and then edited in Ableton Live 8 could I use this device then?

[sec0f111]

why is every single gearwire reviews completely pointless? "oh here let me spend 10 minutes opening the box and reading the instruction manual to you." "let's neglect showing you any of this device's cool features and make obnoxious noises because i have no clue what i'm doing." etc. please just stop. i mean what was that sample? every copy of it in existence should be deleted. wtf man
