2. CONTROL ELEMENTS AND CONNECTIONS

Fig. 2.1: BCN44s control elements

Use the left PRESET button to select the next preset down.

Use the right PRESET button to select the next preset up.

+ To select presets more quickly, keep one of the preset buttons pressed and simultaneously

turn one of the push encoders. The new preset is active as soon as you release the preset key.

PANIC: This function restores the most important MIDI data back to their factory settings.

s Press both PRESET buttons simultaneously. The unit resets as soon as the buttons are pressed.

s After the reset is complete, the unit automatically resumes normal operation and the current preset is

shown in the display.

When powering up the unit, the four-digit LED display shows the current operating software version. After that, the display switches to displaying the last selected preset. Each time you change a setting using any of the control elements, the LED shows this value change in real time. When in programming mode, MIDI commands, program/channel numbers and parameter values are shown.

+ Additional display functions are described under .

Use the STORE button to store presets.

s Press the STORE button. The button LED starts blinking.

s Select the desired preset using the PRESET buttons or keep one of the PRESET buttons pressed and

2. CONTROL ELEMENTS AND CONNECTIONS

Page 6

B-CONTROL NANO BCN44

simultaneously turn one of the push encoders. The new preset number blinks in the display.

s Press STORE again, and STORE LED and the display stop blinking.

s If you want to overwrite the current preset, press the STORE button twice (step 2 is omitted).

s You can cancel the store by pressing the EDIT/EXIT button.

+ We have deliberately refrained from having an automatic store function. This way, in the

meantime you can assign a new MIDI command to a control element without changing the current preset. Should you then wish to restore the previous preset, briefly dial up another preset and then switch back to the old preset. Now, all the data has been restored, including the control element whose function had previously been briefly reassigned.

The EDIT/EXIT button has two functions:

1. EDIT mode: To activate the EDIT mode, keep the EDIT/EXIT button pressed and actuate the desired

control element (push encoders through or buttons through ). After that, release the EDIT/EXIT button. The EDIT mode is now activated for the selected control element and is shown in the display (e.g. E(ncoder) 3 > LED is lit or b(utton)1 > LED blinks).

To exit the EDIT mode, press the EDIT/EXIT button. The unit switches back into normal operating mode.

+ All EDIT mode functions for particular controller types are listed in tables 6.3 and 6.4. + There are two different types of assignable control elements: CONTINUOUS (knobs) and

SWITCH (buttons). The corresponding functions and setting options are described in tables

6.3 and 6.4.

+ Please keep in mind that 2 different data types can be assigned to a push encoder (either

continuous or switch-type).

+ All the settings made here are stored only temporarily! If you wish to store them permanently,

you will have to store them in a preset.

2. GLOBAL mode: All cross-functional settings that affect not only presets but the whole unit are

made in this mode.

s Keep the EDIT/EXIT button pressed and then press the STORE button. You are now in the global

setup and can release both buttons.

s The possible settings are listed in table 2.1:

Table 2.1: Overview of GLOBAL mode parameters

Global MIDI Receive Channel:

Your B-CONTROL receives program change commands on this channel. No program change commands are received in the Off position.

2. CONTROL ELEMENTS AND CONNECTIONS

Page 7

B-CONTROL NANO BCN44

Device ID Number:

You should only change ID number if you are using several NANOs and problems with recognizing the correct unit occur during a SysEx dump.

+ Please keep in mind that SysEx dumps can only be received on the device ID number to

which they were sent!

System Exclusive Dump (SysEx):

By turning the VALUE 1 push encoder , you can select whether only the current preset (Single Dump) or the entire 99 preset contents (All Dump) are sent as a SysEx dump. Pressing the push encoder once triggers the dump.

To receive a SysEx dump, no adjustments on the unit whatsoever are necessary. If you send a single preset to the B-CONTROL, the data is stored in temporary memory and has to be stored into a preset if you wish to store it permanently (see preset store function).

+ ATTENTION: If you send an All Dump to the B-CONTROL, the entire contents of its memory

are immediately overwritten! You will not be asked to confirm your choice, and there is no memory safeguard function!

s To cancel a SysEx dump, press the EXIT button.

MIDI Merge:

With this function, incoming MIDI data are mixed with the BCN44 data at MIDI Out (see fig. 2.2).

Fig. 2.2: Routing with MIDI merge

To activate MIDI merge, turn the push encoder . The 4 push encoders labeled through are used for sending MIDI data. These push encoders have two functions (turn and press), to which different MIDI commands can be assigned.

When in EDIT mode, use CHANNEL to change the values set in tables 6.3 and 6.4.

When in EDIT mode, use PARAMETER to change the values set in tables 6.3 and 6.4.

When in EDIT mode, use VALUE 1 to change the values set in tables 6.3 and 6.4.

When in EDIT mode, use VALUE 2 to change the values set in tables 6.3 and 6.4. Each of the 4 buttons labeled through sends the programmed MIDI command.

+ Note on using the buttons while in EDIT mode: Keep the button pressed and use the push

encoder located above it to select a value. After that, release the button.

The TYPE button selects the type of MIDI data sent in EDIT mode.

The MODE button selects the Controller Mode for the selected MIDI data type function in EDIT mode (see table 6.3 and 6.4).

2. CONTROL ELEMENTS AND CONNECTIONS

Page 8

B-CONTROL NANO BCN44

The DISPLAY button is used for adjusting display functions. When in normal operating mode, value changes are displayed in real time. You can deactivate this function in EDIT mode (see tables 6.3 and 6.4).

Use the LEARN button to activate the LEARN function in EDIT mode. Detailed information about the LEARN function can be found in chapter 4.1.

Fig. 2.3: Rear-end connections and control elements

These are the MIDI connectors of your B-CONTROL. BCN44 parameter data are received on the MIDI IN connector.

Data for controlling MIDI equipment can be sent via MIDI OUT. If MIDI MERGE was activated (see

), the MIDI data received, along with the control data of the BCN44, is sent to the MIDI OUT

connector.

+ Detailed information about MIDI and MIDI functions of your BCN44 can be found in chapter 4.

The POWER switch turns the B-CONTROL on. The POWER switch should always be in its Off position whenever you establish a connection to the mains.

+ Please keep in mind: The POWER switch does not entirely separate the unit from the mains.

Please disconnect the power cord from the mains if you wont be using the unit for a while.

Power is provided via a two-pole connector. A matching mains adapter is included in delivery. A strain relief for the mains cable is located next to the connector.

Alternatively, your BCN44 can also run on batteries. For battery operation you will need to insert three standard AA 1.5-Volt mignon batteries into the battery compartment located on the bottom side of the unit (see ).

+ When running on batteries, the BCN44 does not show the current preset. If you need to see

the current preset number while running on batteries, briefly press the EDIT/EXIT button.

+ When you are not using your BCN44 for a long time, you definitely need to remove the

batteries!

The battery compartment is located at the bottom. To run your B-CONTROL on batteries, you will need 3 AA 1.5 Volt mignon batteries.

The SERIAL NUMBER of your BCN44 is also located at the bottom.

2. CONTROL ELEMENTS AND CONNECTIONS

2.1 Additional functions

2.1.1 Snapshot Send

A Snapshot Send sends all current Controller values, so that B-CONTROL settings are transmitted to the MIDI device connected to it.

s While the EDIT/EXIT button is kept pressed, press the PRESET. The B-CONTROL will now send

the current settings of the controller values.

2.1.2 Single Preset Dump

In addition to the SysEx Dump function, this button combination can also send all settings of the current presets:

s While the EDIT/EXIT button is kept pressed, press PRESET .

+ Snapshot Send and Single Preset Dump differ in the type of data being sent. With

Snapshot Send, only the current control values are transmitted in order to synchronize them with the MIDI device connected. With Single Preset Dump, the entire contents of the current preset including the current control element assignment are being sent. This function lets you easily archive specific presets or swap them with other B-CONTROL users.

2.1.3 Storing received Single Preset Dumps

This function lets you store individual presets that were sent by an external MIDI device.

s Send a Single Preset Dump via MIDI IN to your B-CONTROL.

s Press STORE; the LED blinks.

s Use PRESET to select a storage location.

s Press STORE again; the LED no longer blinks.

3. APPLICATION EXAMPLES

Your BCN44 can be used in many different ways, the most common of which are shown and described in this chapter.

3.1 Software-Controller

When used as a software controller, the BCN44 can control any audio/MIDI software. These include, among others, virtual instruments and effects units, sequencer software etc. It connects to a PC via the MIDI connectors. Using an external USB MIDI interface, the MIDI signal can also be transmitted via USB. The graphic on the next page shows how different devices need to be wired.

3. CONTROL ELEMENTS AND CONNECTIONS

Page 10

B-CONTROL NANO BCN44

Fig. 3.1: Software controller

3.2 Hardware controller

Generally speaking, the B-CONTROL can control any MIDI-capable hardware. This example shows a setup with a MIDI keyboard, a sound module and an effects unit. The effects unit is connected in series using the MIDI THRU connector on the sound module, thus receiving the looped-through MIDI control data of the BCN44. The key data (note, pitch bend etc.) are mixed with the controller data of the BCN44, provided that the MIDI Merge function (see ch. 2) is activated.

Of course, you can also control the often hard-to-access sound parameters of a keyboard in real time. Connect MIDI OUT of the BCN44 to MIDI IN of your keyboard.

3. APPLICATION EXAMPLES

Page 11

B-CONTROL NANO BCN44

3.3 Multiple MIDI controllers

Together with the BCN44, several MIDI controllers can be connected to one another in order to construct a broad control setup. Your setup can be expanded with the members of our BEHRINGER B-CONTROL series (BCR2000, BCF2000 and BCA2000).

Fig. 3.3: Combination with additional MIDI controllers

4. MIDI

Your B-CONTROL supports all kinds of MIDI messages, which are explained below:

Program Change Messages and MIDI Bank Select:

Program change commands are used to call up programs or presets on the MIDI devices connected to your B-CONTROL. There are 128 program numbers available for calling up presets. For devices with more than 128 presets, you can use the Bank Select function, which lets you select a specific storage bank before sending a program change message.

Control Change (CC):

Control Change Messages let you retrieve and automate many parameters and functions. You can allocate individual control elements (controls, buttons etc.) on your B-CONTROL to CC messages. Because both buttons and knobs can be used, you can control controller values either statically or dynamically, all in real time.

+ Standard MIDI Control Change commands are listed in table 6.5 in the appendix (ch. 6).

NRPN:

Furthermore, you can also use controllers that feature no standard allocation, and can therefore be assigned in many different ways. These are called NRPN (Non-Registered Parameter Numbers). NRPNs are broken down to MSB (Most Significant Byte) and LSB (Least Significant Byte) in order to achieve a higher data resolution. A low resolution becomes apparent very quickly, particularly during fader movements of a mixing console. A resolution of 7 bit (= 128 values) makes for rough and bumpy level jumps. By dividing up the data into MSBs and LSBs, you can accomplish 14-bit fader/encoder resolution, corresponding to a subdivision into over 16.000 steps! In addition to NRPN, there are also RPN (Registered Parameter Numbers). RPN commands are defined in the GM (General MIDI), GS (Roland®) and XG (Yamaha®) MIDI standards .

4. MIDI

Page 12

B-CONTROL NANO BCN44

+ The INCREMENT option (see table 6.3) is only possible for button elements like for CC,

NRPN and After Touch command types. This mode allows for step-by-step increasing of a controller value with each successive press of a button. The width of a step can be determined using the VALUE 1 encoder . If you press a keyboard element again, the value sent will be incrementally higher by the amount set there. If the step width is 10, values 0, 10, 20, 30 ... 110, 120, 0, 10 and so on will be sent consecutively.

Depending on whether you selected INCREMENT + or INCREMENT - , you can also work with negative values. With this function, the B-CONTROL gives you the option to control software buttons with more than two switch positions.

Note Messages:

Note On and Note Off messages are some of the most essential MIDI messages. They enable playing MIDI instruments via a master keyboard or a computer. Note messages are also used to trigger drum loops or to call up single sounds from a sampler. Many effects units also allow for rhythmical entering of delay times or song tempos by using note commands.

Even though Note Off messages are not really in use by keyboarders anymore, sending this status is supported by the B-CONTROL.

Velocity corresponds to keystroke strength, thus corresponding to the volume of a weighted-action keyboard on a digital piano. Since the B-CONTROL does not feature weighted-action buttons, the velocity is transmitted with a fixed value that can be set up during programming.

+ Note commands can only be assigned to buttons and the push function of encoders.

+ Note commands are listed in table 6.1 in the appendix (ch. 6).

Pitch Bend

The Pitch Bend wheel on a keyboard lets you bend the pitch of a tone. The Pitch Bend functions has its own allocation in the MIDI format, and can be assigned to a rotary knob function, for example.

After Touch

MIDI keyboards featuring After Touch can react to key pressure after a key is hit, sending data via MIDI. This function either reacts key-specific (Key Pressure) or it responds to all notes the same way (Channel Pressure). Your BCN44 supports both. This way, you can adjust After Touch-controlled Filter Sweeps or control Vibrato using an encoder or a button.

MIDI Machine Control (MMC):

Using MIDI Machine Control, transport functions of a sequencer or a drum computer (e.g. start, stop, quick cue/reverse) and locator points with permanently adjustable time positions (Locate, Punch In/Out points) can be assigned to individual buttons (press function only).

GM/GS/XG parameters:

This MIDI data type can be used for controlling GM/GS/XG sound modules in order to be able to quickly select the relevant parameters using a plain-text display, thus avoiding having to enter any CC or NRPN numbers.

SysEx Dump:

A SysEx Dump is a function that allows you to transmit non-standardized data via MIDI. This method is often used for reading out memory contents and storing them externally.

The Status Byte indicates the data type (SysEx). The first three data bytes are a manufacturer identification, so that the correct unit can be addressed when dealing with large MIDI networks.

To allow for simultaneous use of several B-CONTROLs of the same type, you can enter a device number (Device ID) in the global setup, so that data gets back to the correct unit.

+ Please keep in mind that SysEx Dumps can only be received on the device ID to which they

were sent!

4. MIDI

Page 13

B-CONTROL NANO BCN44

4.1 LEARN function

The easiest way to assign MIDI functions to individual control elements is to use the LEARN function in the EDIT mode. Here, the assignment is done from the outside. For example, MIDI data that you are sending from a MIDI sequencer to your B-CONTROL are assigned to a previously selected control element.

Using the LEARN function, in addition to receiving CC, NRPN and note commands, almost all types of MIDI data can be received, including short SysEx strings.

s Keep the EDIT/EXIT button pressed and actuate the desired control element (push encoder or button).

The control element is shown in the display.

s Release the EDIT/EXIT button and press the LEARN button . The B-CONTROL is ready to receive

a MIDI command.

s Start the desired MIDI command on your sequencer or software synthesizer.

s After successful data transmission, GOOd is shown in the display; otherwise, bAd is shown in the

display if false, defective or excessively long data was sent.

s To leave or cancel the LEARN function, press the EDIT/EXIT button.

s Store your changes in a preset.

Under the terms of this warranty, BEHRINGER shall not be held responsible for any cost resulting from such a modification/ adaptation.

3. Free inspections and maintenance/repair work are expressly excluded from this warranty, in particular, if caused by improper handling of the product by the user.
