Using 2 Behringer BCF2000's w/AP7? -ACID Product Family

Subject:Using 2 Behringer BCF2000's w/AP7? Posted by: lofreequency Date:1/8/2009 6:38:21 PM I have one BCF configured via the Mackie emulation mode with BCF View all set up too. Works great. I can toggle across all the tracks, 8 at a time on the mixing console. However, on a couple of my band recording projects we are getting up there in the number of tracks so scrolling across the mixer sometimes take a few button hits and figuring out which track corresponds to a given track takes a bit of searching. I have two BCF2000's and I can't figure out how or want to know if it's possible to add the second one in the Emulated Mackie Extender mode? I'd want the first BCF2000 to control trks 1-8, then the second unit to control trks 9 thru however many tracks we are using via the preset buttons. Currently the one BCF2000 controls trks 1 thru however many tracks we have using the "preset" buttons on the BCF. And I'm not sure BCF View will support 2 units? Anybody figure this out? Thanks.
