Howdy!

I've just successfully finished a one song project in Vegas 12 due the kind assistance offorum member audiokid. Now I'm working on mixing a more complex project, and I really need to get my Behringer BCF-2000 control surface working.

I have it connected, and Vegas is controlling the faders, bringing them all to zero when I move out of the program. And I can use them as level trimmers during playback for the assigned channels.

But what I really want to do is do a mix, using the faders to write the volume envelopes, so I can record the whole mix. I've been through the manual and the help files, and it is not working as the manual says it should work:

"During playback, adjusting a control will create envelope points or keyframes at the cursor position. As long as you are adjusting the control, new envelope points/keyframes will be created for each change of the cursor's position".

That's the part I have not been able to get working. I this all the time in Edius. What am I overlooking?

Figured it out. It was in [[url=http://[/URL]="http://dspcdn.sonyc…"]the Sony Whitepaper on using the BCF-2000 in Vegas[/]="http://dspcdn.sonyc…"]the Sony Whitepaper on using the BCF-2000 in Vegas[/].

It turns out that, even though I thought everything was on in the program, I had to enable automation using the proper keystroke on the BCF-2000. The magic keystroke is "Downshift-Edit". "Downshift" in this case, is the lower left button under the LCD display.
