1. INTRODUCTION

Thank you for expressing your confidence in us by purchasing
the B-CONTROL BCD2000. The BCD2000 features a full-speed
USB 4-channel audio interface plus high-resolution 24-bit A/D
and D/A converters. It perfectly complements the included
BEHRINGER B-DJ software or any other DJ software. And don’t
let the cutesy looks fool you: this is an integrated, full-fledged
audio mixer with a premium quality mic preamp, 3-band kill EQ
per channel, ultra-precise faders, super-smooth crossfader and
talkover function.
The BCD2000 is packed with 2 state-of-the-art phono pre-
amplifiers, one of which is switchable to a CD player. Its
sophisticated headphone section includes PFL Mix, Split options
and direct listening to master output mix. Play, Pause, Cue, Loop
and Pitch Bend functions are regulated via dedicated controls for
intuitive Djing, and 4 user-assignable controls and buttons are
available for an integrated FX section. Take advantage of the
enormous processing power of modern PCs and mix, scratch
and manipulate digital music in real time—regardless of the
format!
