Hello,

I am controling max with a bcf
I changed of bcf and can not find
back how to control the changes of "preset"
of the bcf by max
I used to do it like this but the midi-out info works only when I
am on the good preset on the bcf...
If someone can help me.
Thanks

If you are on Mac:

Your BCF is detected in AudioMidiSetup?

If so, dbl-click pgmout and ctlout to choose BCF or initialize it at startup.

In your patch Midi channel is set to 2. Your BCF receives on ch2?

Let me know if you want an example patch for complete control of BCF>Max>BCF.

hey Waj,

Thanks for the answer
yes my Bcf is detected
and I send a message
to all my pgmout to initialise them
each preset has a specifiq channel
for all controlers
fader 1 on preset 1 is : cc 1 1 127 0 ...
fader 1 on preset 2 is : cc 2 1 127 0 ...
when I send a message in max for exemple
for the fader one of the second preset it
works only if my bcf is already on preset 2
so I would like to be able to control
the presets bouton from max to fix the pb...
many thanks

This seems logic to me since BCF receives Midi data only 'inside' the active preset, program changes only on the global RX channel as defined in Global Setup.

However, you can assign different midi channels to encoders in different encoder groups. So you can change encoder settings in group 2 while group 1 is active.
