OK so I have a behringer bcr 2000, and I use a MAC (osx), the thing is, I cant seem to get the bcr 2000 to work in renoise (or ableton for that matter), also the behringer site does not offer much help.
any ideas?..
I think it works on the macs generic midi drivers, so you shouldn’t have to install anything. http://www.behringerdownload.de/BCR2000/BC…guide_rev_1.pdf
OK, thanks, I new it should be easy- it just did not work, sorted now BUT- i have anouther question…
I have my BCR hooked up to my laptop with USB.
I also want to use the midi capabilaties of my NOVATION BASS STATION (hard synth)…
can i do it thru the BCR, by using the midi thru port?
I have tried by connecting it all up with a midi cable to the BCR from the NOVATION, but whatever program i use it with, the novation has no effect( however it does make the midi thru indicator blink on the bcr).
?
dude, when you bought the thing it came with a manual, right??? I could spell it out for you, but RTFM!

Hi Kee. I just arrived at a cottage and I’m here till Sunday. I bought a BCR2000 around January this year and haven’t plugged it in before it. Last night I plugged it in, and try as I might I was simply unable to get my Mac to recognize it. I went through the usual rigmarole of “OS X El Capitan no support BCR2000? Behringer stuff poxy? Throw it out the window?” … Decided to maybe start selling it next week.
Today, I thought, I’ll check out the manual, and found out that you can decide yourself how the BCR2000 behaves.
This is what you do.
-
Press Edit down, then, while Edit is down, press Store.
-
You are now in the Global Setup Menu.
-
Twist the Type rotary around and you’ll see your choices, which are U-1 to U-4 and S-1 to S-4.
-
If you are attempting to connect your BCR2000/BCF2000 to your computar via USB, you can narrow down your selection to something between U-1 and U-4.
-
The minute you select one, and press Exit , your/my Mac will recognize it as a USB-device.
But what is U-1 to U-4?
U-1 seems simplified, so simply, BCR2000 sends to USB, USB sends to BCR2000 - completely ignoring any Midi In Midi Out-A, Midi Out-B/Midi Thru.
U-2 has Midi In going directly to Midi-Out-B and to USB Midi In (to your computar), with USB-Midi-Out from your computar going to Midi-Out-A.
U-3 has Midi In going only to USB Midi In (to your computar), … damn these get complex after a while.
. Anyway, uhh…
Well, I tried looking around the interwebs for explanations as to what U-3 to S-4 mean, but all I could find was this schematic. I hope it helps.

dude, I bought a BCR2000 too, in 2017 AD, and there was no manual. I was able to fish one out from the interwebs and all that, but not before thinking the whole device was borken.
