Setting Up The BCF2000 to Control Fl Studio 8's Mixer

A 10 minute tutorial on setting up the Behringer BCF2000 B-Control Fader (now that's a mouthful) to control the mixer in FL Studio 8, complete with working motorized faders (without having to spend a grand on a Mackie Universal controller!). No manual mapping or linking to controllers required ... it all happens as if by magic using the Mackie Control Universal mapping. Includes a short demonstration of the basic features of the BCF2000 controlling the FL Studio mixer. A more detailed tutorial/demo is underway that will touch on just about everything the BCF2000 can control on the FL Studio mixer (i.e. setting up sends, controlling the built-in track eq, stereo separation, transport controls, etc.)

No. Unfortunately it will not work for the bcr, only the bcf. The bcr does not support Mackie emulation mode.

nice video .. BUT... if u move a fader in FL .. will the motorized faderz go along????

anyone?

[midiotsavant]

Yes. I should have shown that in the video. The motion of the faders on the BCF is a little jerky when you are tweaking the mixer faders with your mouse. But the physical faders do follow the mouse tweaks, they end up in the right place when you stop moving the mouse and it won't effect audio playback.

if my fl studio has a BCF2000 controller type, do i need BCFview?

[midiotsavant]

You don't need BCFview to use the BCF2000 with FL Studio, but it is a big help when you are running it in Mackie Emulation Mode. Otherwise, it is too easy to lose track of what part of the software you are controlling.

I think im gunna buy one, but i heard in some forums and saw in some vids the things are not smooth somethimes? can some1 explain :]?

[Tyreeb91]

Can you use any other mixer besides the Bcf?

[han549]

@IntoxOfficial yes

[IntoxOfficial]

will this work in fl10?

[MrJCentral]

Have you ever used this with Reason? If you have you might have noticed if you have it locked to say the mixer, and you hit the 2nd from the top right hand button it will change the Panning LEDs from whats it panned to to it basically a meter for each track with the LEDS going up and down flashing with that track. Is this possible in FL Studio or Logic or any other program? It has to be I just dont understand how. Just wanted to see if you knew or anyone else.
