intellijel Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 I use MIDIbox stuff when it solves problems better and cheaper than buying equivalent (or non-existant equipment). However, sometimes things like the Behringer BCR2000/BCF2000 just can't be beat (if I bought my own motor faders, led rings, built container etc. it would be waaaay mroe expensive than a used BCR2000 for $1000).After many issues with Novation Remote SL's pathetic attempts at automapping (they did nothing new when they could have made greta improvements over Mackie Control). I have since defaulted to using a BCR2000 in mackie control mode. For the BCF2000, behringer made an app called BCFview wich emulates the mackie control LCD as a small window on your computer. Huskerview is a simmialr app for the BCR2000. However, the don't solve the problem of having to look at ones screen.How hard would it be to build an LCD module that would display Mackie Controller values? It would interface to whatever computer you are using ad would have to send and receive midi (in order to extract the control states between ones controller and computer).Could I do this with Midibox? Has soemone already done the code fo this?thanks!intellijel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK. Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Yes, just use the MIDIbox LC firmware. You could attach a graphical 240x64 display - even the slow ones - it will show some nice graphics. Otherwise you will have to use two 2x40 LCDsBest Regards, Thorsten.
