BEHRINGER B-CONTROL Programming Guide

I. Operating mode selection
Before you start making changes to the settings in order to control NATIVE INSTRUMENTS
®
PRO-53 using
your BEHRINGER B-CONTROL, you’ll have to choose an operating mode. Mode selection depends on the
connectivity options on your computer. Selecting an operating mode is done as follows:
1. Keep the EDIT key pressed and press the STORE key at the same time. The B-CONTROL is now in
the global setup menu.
2. Turn the first push encoder (TYPE) to select an operating mode.
3. Press the EXIT key to store this setting and leave the global setup menu.
Note:
A more detailed description of operating modes can be found in the B-CONTROL operating manual.
1. Mode selection with USB connection
If you connected your computer to
the B-CONTROL via USB, select
the modes U1 through U4.
2. Mode selection with double MIDI connection
If you connected your B-CONTROL (MIDI IN and MIDI OUT A) to a PC MIDI interface
using two MIDI cables, select mode S4. This mode allows parameter feedback without
the MERGE function (the MIDI commands created in the B-CONTROL are not mixed
with the incoming data).
3. Mode selection with a single MIDI connection
If you connected your B-CONTROL to a PC MIDI
interface using a single MIDI cable (MIDI OUT A),
select one of the modes S1 through S4 (this wiring
configuration doesn’t facilitate parameter feedback).
Note:
The parameter feedback function of the B-CONTROL can only be used if the software you are
controlling is capable of sending MIDI data. When it comes to the software used in this programming
manual, namely, NATIVE INSTRUMENTS
®
PRO-53, this condition is met.
