BCR2000 NRPN to A4 problems : (

Hello All,

I wanted to use my Behringer BCR2000 to send NRPN messages to the A4 (for FX control).

However I cant seem to get it to work.

In the BCR2000 manual it mentions something called an NRPN Parameter number? WTF?

No mention of MSB or LSB (good old Behringer :wink:

Please see image from manual below.

Hope you can help

Jim

For those interested I found the following page helped solve my problem.

I needed to generate a NRPN number from the MSB + LSB in the A4 manual.

I used the windows calculator (in programmer mode) to convert the MSB and LSB numbers (from the A4 manual) to two 7-bit BINARY numbers. I then put them together to form a 14 bit binary number (MSB+LSB) and converted it back to Decimal.

I will post my conversions.

316 = Rev/Predelay
317 = Rev/Decay
318 = Rev/Shelving Freq

You don’t need to convert from decimal to binary and back again.

Just perform the following (simple) calculation:

MSB*128 + LSB = NRPN

Hint:

Multiplication of a decimal number by 128 is the same as shifting the equivalent binary number 7 bits to the left.

Example:

A4 LFO1 Speed => NRPN MSB 1 LSB 80

1*128 + 80 = 208
