All user reviews for the Behringer B-Control Deejay BCD2000

Good morning. Little reminder of my config: I possde an HP Pavilion DV9500 laptop with vista. The only use of the Virtual PC is DJ4.3r12.

APRS information myself the BCD3000 is not Vista compatible! So I bought the BCD2000. and this does not Manir fiable.je meet many of the concerns of reliability Systm (random image function buttons cue, lights that play on the PC but playback does not start, or s'arrter to Get You Started After a few seconds.
APRS t have several forums, I'm not the only encounter problem. The PERIOD of testing the BCD2000 ends this weekend and I intend to make, because Browsing.

I'm looking for a Controller to an external pr COST A for platinum diffusion plate B

The operation of Virtual DJ trs works well without the BCD
I would like to have a rponse clearly and prcise on the hardware on which I have no problem without having to spend hours running OK for the moment I feel not to advance.

This category in it intgre everything you need to express the whole machine, I wonder what would a connector with a "fire-wire" instead of usb? ? I had some problem of rapid transfer effects + music on another external drive ...

I prfre of hercules mk2 for the ergonomics, it is larger and better features ... pacieuse, but against the module "loop" and the cue are less accessible. ..

the program comes with does not make the weight against his direct opponent => dj mixstation3, do not get ripped off like me, do not buy the Xylio future deck pro which is even worse ... damn (no skin's no possibility to configure the free jogs etc ...)

do not update, without making a playlist of your printing or else you will lose tt you have saved the Prior ...

Despite these few remarks for those who want = You Started with a versatile machine for discovering the pleasures of djing ... is top

I think, as Quazi all products of this Berhinger Trampe, the sound quality leaves DSIR, in his living room or a small evening between friends, going without a problem, but ds that it comes to "pter watts" as they say here, we mean that the pre amp Intgr in the machine is not for prvu ...

I had some problem of "cooking" with a laptop qq minutes after use, the music became inaudible, it was dconnecter restart the machine then fingers crossed ...

Finally ... to return to the basics, the MP3 on your PC are not all in the same frequencies and not of the same loudness, the graph helps compensate for the soft but even when restr a big diffrence in power output when in "the heat of the moment", it would not hurt that there ale a utility that can balance the bandwidth of its ...

So 1 1 / 2 years that I served pretty frquement and I made the turn, he must spend at dsormais supprieur (I wait with impatience the rmx!)

I think it's more of a fun little tool aprentissage a good price ...

it is easy to install and do not take classes to use it ...

particularity of the best CHRE = less than the mk2 more comfortable =

of (the) features) of (the) minus (s) right (s): minor problems of reliability = not enough sound effects, no compatibility with other apps that future decks or bdj (most basic)

exellent choice xomme first purchase ...

I opt for the BCD2000 for its looks less toy that my DJConsole Hercules.
For the space between the knobs, the contact buttons and reenable.
And especially the fact that it feeds on the sector and it is not autoaliment by USB, which allows it to have more power in the master output. The opposite of DJConsole of Hercules mttait trs low and with a constant breath.

That's the only positive, with the installation.
incompatibility with Vista by now.
incompatibility with certain audio formats, which can even lead to shutdowns and blovages software.

The drivers ... Then I put the zero point a cause of instability Royal Vista, such as evening and we arrive to reboot it a dozen times by testing all sorts of unlikely combinations that admarre and was eventually planted in the middle of a set ...
No set date drivers, it was believed that the product t even abandoned by Behringer.
Very practical with Virtual Dj mix mp3 in the first few weeks. Reinstalling APRS moults, I dropped the case, there is still unstable, a real pen.
But in ergonomics is gnial, except that it happens that is wrong in the knobs because of their positions and especially their black color.

APRS two years of use, it hardly walk. aa begins after six months of constant use (every weekend) with false contact faders, these would ragissent not at all as they should (and latency bursts untimely).
I advise the same for when more than occasional use, see leisure. Unfortunately it will not support your long digital attacks. It is more efficient than DJConsole of Hercules.

Most CHARACTERISTICS payable for a bbete CHRE so little that can replace two turntables and a mixer are Submitted. A small BMOL: the Systm CUE does not break bricks ...
They can be used as a mixer for CD or vinyl.

The BCD 2000 is very simple and accessible trs. The manual is clear plutt. It is idalie for beginners.

The sound is not bad. With a nice little sound system installed in a room that has good acoustics can even be enjoyable trs. We must realize that once the plug into a PC sound card Systm uses the BCD and it is not bad at all.

Of course, if you plug everything on a PC that train on a string Hifi month for a garage in a fte bttn ... a risk to do so.

I use it for almost a year. It is strong enough. (It is still alive despite the various falling glass and Co.).
I prfere MODEL home in Hercules for its ergonomics, its Aesthetics, and the prsence pad for synchronizing the music without stopping, without support on the self-sync.
It should particulirement for beginners (it would be totally stupid to beginners on the CD player too many and too complex Chres) and those without in 1000 snapping pioneer. It also allows more expression to animate an evening Entire without problem.
Résumé for it's cheap, accessible, quality and suitable for beginners as the most expresses thanks the possibility to use it with other decks.

Bye.

Enjoy the mix ---------> <---------

I bought this console while I was working on windows, it worked quite well with BDJ despite a lack of opportunity rather embarrassing. I used it for two months without problems. I liked the large number of pots, a little less jog wheels, not very precise.
Unfortunately, Behringer looks angry with the free software, because this console is ABSOLUTELY UNUSABLE Linux, which I use now. I find it a shame and I deeply regret my purchase. Despite a number of console owners who would like it to be ported to this OS great, Behringer did not listen and stubbornly neglects the development of affordable and complete tools for this console (even under windows, there is very little free software that supports the ...). In short, a console still fun to use but only if you have or already in a mixing software fee, and still too expensive for what it is. Too bad ...

The drivers are stable?
NO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They are often updated?
NO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The installation is done it without problems?
NO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Not as complex as the manufacturer Behringer)
The manual is clear and sufficient?
NO !!!!!!!!! (No manual online help)
Have you experienced any incompatibilities?
YES !!!!!!! (Well yes LoL)

For how long have you been using it?
I do not know what to do with my BCD 2000 she sleeps in that bag, served with 1 time 5 times in the evening.

What thing do you like most/least about it?
Pros: None.
Cons: TOO ...

I put 1 / 10 for effort.

What you say one word comes to mind HORRIBLE!

Compatibility with existing software and with hazardous fader to a chisel Behringer attacked us out of the ultimate product for a good headlock.
Tea too sensitive, leveling that adjusts constantly default recognition by the PC 1 time on 10, which increases every single pitch, setting headphone, Knob not recognized by the software so unusable, poor internal sound card, software supplied with machine and developed by Behringer (the fear I) unusable and incomprehensible ...

But I'll stop there, with this you will understand machine avoided, go your way keep your money save money and you take a Vestax VCI-100. For me it's what I have done.

https://fr.audiofanzine.com/surface-de-controle-dj/vestax/VCI-100/avis/

Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...
NO I will not surment the Vestax even if it is 3 times more expensive.

For how long have you been using it?
1 year + + but I do not use more

Did you try many other models before getting this one?
Cdj 100s / 500 / 800 / 1000

What thing do you like most/least about it?

The least
Ohhhhhh bugs per kilo, the pitch instability crash right in the mix, and so on, and this has been used at home for fun and learn a little dijing the can, without more, I 's use with virtual dj is the only software that makes using a bit nice

Plus, the moment any idea can be the price
In short for those seeking to learn the basics of business without this ruined it might do the trick, but the plan changed after 4 to 6 months

Before, I used a Hercules, like many others, and the hardware level, I prefer the Behringer.

Unlike the Hercules, the buttons on the BCD 2000 are much reactive, do not support such a savage for sthg happens, so the CUE are much better off.

on the other hand, what bothers me most is the lack of software compatibility.
I learned on the Internet that the microphone will never be usable via Virtual DJ. With the console, we are given B-DJ, which is frankly not very aesthetically pleasing. So I bought FutureDecks Pro, which has more mouths, but BIG problem: My PC crashed (totally blue screen while I've never otherwise) for sound! So believe me it's pretty annoying.

You should also know: it is impossible to install your console if you use a 64-bit OS, while this type of OS is required to replace those 32-bit ...

In short, I am happy with the console, but not followed. And unfortunately, we can not use it without software ...

I've been using the BCD2000 for two years. I wouldn't give it away except for a BCD3000. The handling is not easy for beginners, but once you get control of it, your mixes will become more interesting.

The BCD allows you to create your own personal sound world. Both rear analog inputs make it more versatile and allow you to make almost anything.

Pros & cons:

+ Compact size, light weight, easily transportable
+ Traktor support
+ DirectX plugins
+ Integration of external gear

Yes

Already two years
