5. APPLICATIONS
This is a professional-style studio setup with much more
external equipment than in the previous examples. The MIDI
network is also expanded; the entire studios MIDI equipment is
connected to a central MIDI patchbay, which in turn is connected
to the BCA2000. The audio inputs are augmented via an analog
mixing console that submixes all sound sources (microphones,
keyboards, sound modules, samplers etc.) and feeds them into
the B-CONTROL as a stereo sum signal.
The
MIDI equipment
includes a MIDI keyboard and the two
BEHRINGER MIDI controllers BCF2000 and BCR2000 as input
devices. Similarly, the sampler and sound module A as well all
MIDI-capable effects processors (here: ULTRACURVE PRO
DEQ2496, V-VERB PRO REV2496 and VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP2024P)
are all connected to the MIDI patchbay. The patchbay is connected
to the BCA2000 via MIDI IN and MIDI OUT A, which in turn transmits
the entire studios MIDI data through a maximum of 16 MIDI channels
to your computer. Using the second MIDI output of your BCA2000
(OUT B), you can address additional MIDI devices using up to
16 additional MIDI channels.
The
Audio wiring
follows a submixing scheme: all
microphones, sound modules, effects processors and other gear
such as CD players, drum computers etc. are connected to an
analog mixing console (here: BEHRINGER EURODESK
SL3242FX-PRO). The stereo sum signal from the mixer is fed
into the line inputs of your BCA2000.
