EMX Midi implementation with bcr2000 midi controler.

I have EMX and BEHRINGER BCR 2000(http://www.behringer.com/BCR2000/index.cfm), my question is - Can i program Electribe with Midi controler, to changing knob`s value for each part`s without switching parts on the electribe?. If i can , than how can i do that . Midi controler has lof of knobs on the panel. I want to have quickly acces to ingerate to the sound of each part withouth changing parts on emx

yes

i dont know how to set it up but i assume its in the supplied computer editing program

lets say you want the first 5 knobs along the bottom to control the cutoff freq for each of the synth parts

just set the knobs all to the same CC number and then change the midi channel for each of them 1-5

if this is doable then its going to be a fantastic tool

everythig`s it`s work fine, with that controle, but i don`t know how to program NRPN parameter`s. Example - i want to mute, and unmute single parts from kontroler. CC parameters are easiest to program.

yes you can, plug the out of the emx in the in of the bcr
press leanr turn a knob on the emx
repeat for every part

i did 2 scenes for my esx (everything besides mutes as they are the shittiest implementation ever (ie transmit the state of ALL muted/unmuted parts in 1 message, same for solo)
1 have volume on faders and the 4 most important parameters on the top rotaries (im on a bcf, but its the same, you even have WAY more knobs than I do)

OK, and another question, can bcr2000 recive sysex data form emx, to set up knobs with data form emx, of course knobs witch i have programed.I`m use one set up for all knobs and midi chanell`s, and all paterns in emx. how can i do that?

you mean like sysex dump?
as the emx doesnt send sysex , only CC's and NRPN, both of which can be learned from the BCx

in the manual of BCx is wrote:

DATA REQUEST:
Current value seting of the midi device connected to your B-CONTROL can be transmited to your B-CONTROL using the thata request function ( provided that the midi device supports this function).
