Hey all,

One of my beta testers is using a Behringer BCF2000 that has motorized sliders. 
 He says they aren't intended for animation, just to move the sliders into 
different preset positions.  When he sets up his sliders in this way they don't 
send any midi messages, which presents a problem since my plugin is intended 
for real-time animation in a 3D program.  So the starting values aren't the 
same as the sliders and this causes unwanted results when starting a new 
recording session.

So, is there a way to request the value of controls from the device without 
waiting for messages?

I'm not really a "midi guy" (my plugin was initially for joysticks and the 
like, but a lot of users requested midi support, so I added it through the use 
of PortMidi), so midi is fairly foreign to me.  Something tells me this might 
not be possible, but I'm hoping it is.  

Thanks,
Kevin
