 Looks like Frontier Design (Alphatrac) is also going in this direction..

What do you mean.  I have an Alphatrack, but I don't understand what you're referring to.

look here:

Frontier still lists Alphatrack as their 'new' hardware controller, and it's about 4 years old I think. It's great, but they appear to have dropped the whole hardware ball in favor of music iApps, recently discontinuing Tranzport which was a brilliant and unique product. Oh well. 

Hey, was it you that was toying with working on an update for the Alphatrack/Sonar plugin to bring it up to X1 speed? I have a feeling Frontier isn't going to bother with it. If it was you, any progress? I'm about to dive into X1 after a couple of days with the LE/trial version, I like it a lot but would love to get the Alpha's  EQ control working (it's completely non-functioning in LE, does it do anything in Producer?)

No, it was another user. I forget her screen name.  I think it turned out to be too complicated. Not sure.  Thanks for the info!!!

Sorry for the confusion.. Frontier Designs appears to be involved doing some programs for the iPod and might have a control generic control surface for the iPod. Check out the website (http://www.frontierdesign.com/). I know Presonus has one for the iPad. I think the Alphatrac is pretty much dead in the water for now to control the PC unless someone can do an AJ for it. To bad because it is a really good product.

Hi gibsongs, 
How did you go with the BCR2000 in ProChannel? 

May we have an update? please

Anything that can use ACT can.

I use a BCF and the MIDI section of my ZED-R16. The BCF won't in Mackie mode though, only as an ACT controller.

Tranzport was still working in X1. Great for jumping around tracks during mastering - while standing in the back of the control room!

Haven't fired it up in X2 yet, but don't see any problems since it was fine in X1...
...alright... I'll fire it up tonight to make sure!

A control surface for Pro Channel would be great.

Cheers,
MG
