I buy Behringer like I buy at Wal-mart... It gets me close but I feel a little guilty. Unlike Wal-mart I'm usually pretty happy with the performance of my Behringer gear. But I always look at it as a stepping stone (if I make enough cash with this piece of gear I'll replace it with a nice one and sell this Behringer thing to someone else trying to get a leg up). I have three pieces of their gear and all of them have miserable documentation for getting up and running. They shouldn't have to explain midi and CC (even though it's a MIDI device). Folks who want to use a mixer as a MIDI instrument will already understand all that CC stuff. They could put the hard-core stuff online and just include a quickstart and I bet more people would be happy. But I don't blame them (much) for going short on the documentation. It keeps the price down (especially since they put out in several languages). But I'm committed to trying to put out some practical HOW-TO docs for the gear I use so we can all get up and running faster. Take care and keep up the good work. This is my first committed foray into blogging and I'm trying to be right about it. Yeah, I think it’s only fair to point at the real machine.

The BCF2000 documentation is a bit crapulous - but it's also pretty trick to try and explain MIDI & CC's and all that, plus explain how to get the gear to work with it. I also like your link to the " The surface that you wish you were really buying"! g-lo

I hope that this helps anyone trying to get over the crap-ass documentation that Behringer gives. Better yet, I hope it gets more music out there.
