With all stand-alone modes, all MIDI connectors can be used simultaneously, and these modes differ only in how the data is transmitted on the MIDI outputs. Of course, not only sound generators can be remotely controlled (as shown in the illustrations) but also effects processors, groove boxes, hardware sequencers, lighting equipment, compact studios, portable keyboards, e-pianos etc. - basically any equipment with a MIDI input. This can also be your computer with its own MIDI interface. The USB connector can not be used while your B-CONTROL is in one of the stand-alone modes. A merge function that makes mixing MIDI data from two different sources to one output possible is active at output A in stand-alone modes S-1 to S-3. Fig. 4.5: Routing in USB mode 4 This operating mode should be selected if you want to couple two B-CONTROLs (e.g. 1x BCF2000 & 1x BCR2000) to control your software using both B-CONTROLS through a common USB port. Additionally, MIDI OUT B of the first controller (unit 1) can be used from the computer as a 16-channel MIDI output. The data of both B-CONTROLs is mixed and is sent to the host computer via USB. Select stand-alone mode 3 for the second unit (unit 2).
