B-CONTROL NANO BCN44

1. INTRODUCTION

Thank you for expressing your confidence in us by purchasing the B-CONTROL BCN44. The B-CONTROL is an extremely versatile pocket-size MIDI controller. Despite its modest size, its numerous functions will thoroughly impress you.

Unlike with conventional MIDI controllers, our goal with the BCN44 was to offer an intuitive, flexible and optically appealing product that doesn’t inhibit your creativity with miniature knobs and buttons. Therefore, we have decided to go with a robust, clearly laid-out design consisting of freely programmable encoders and buttons, extensive MIDI functions and the possibility to work practically anywhere. These are just some of the outstanding B-CONTROL BCN44 characteristics that will be a lot of fun to use for a very long time.

+The following user’s manual is designed to help you get comfortable with this unit’s control elements, so that you can learn all of its functions. After carefully reading the user’s manual, store it somewhere where you can easily find it later, in case you need to look something up.
