Anyone using Behringer BCR-2000 Control Surface with Ableton? How is it? Seems like the best controller for ableton... is it not?
The novation nocturn is cool, but this one is little more expensive and has tons of knobs.what dya think?

IMO the BCR2k is the best bang for your buck when it comes to controllers.

the software editor SUCKS but I haven't used that for years, I edit it be hand which is really easy.

Behringer's editor is envious of Enigma if that's any clue.

Seriously, just got buy it, learn to program by hand and off you go.

i could never even make the editor work for bcr-2K, but as stated it's easy to do by hand. Once you get it down it's easier then using an editor.

Read the manual after buy!

And afterwards the BCR will rock ya soul!

I can't live without them anymore!

I got both BCR and BCF and yes they kicks ass in not only Live!

You can use them together with Traktor ect. and you can program them just like you wish!

Good Luck! :D

Behringer Editor sucks! But you dont really need it! Mackie mode nice!

The BCR is the best value as far as controllers go.
Buy it!

unreliable. i sent the first one back because parameter feedback didn't work. the second one now has two broken buttons. windows has trouble recognising two at once over usb...

...but...

still love them, they're cheap and do the job, using two in my live rig at the moment :-)
