Behringer BCR32 USB MIDI Controller & Sequencer

The Behringer BCR32 is a USB MIDI controller with an integrated 32-step sequencer, expanding on the classic BCR2000 design with CV/gate outputs and enhanced routing options. Its 32 assignable rotary encoders include eight push encoders with dual functionality, now arranged in a four-row layout with colour-coded LED rings for immediate visual feedback. Twenty programmable buttons dominate the top panel, with 16 labelled for dedicated sequencer functions alongside an OLED display and transport controls.

The onboard sequencer provides four independent tracks – configurable as mono, poly or drum tracks – with storage for 192 patterns across 12 banks of 16. Each track offers independent loop start, loop length, clock division, direction and swing parameters, plus two assignable MIDI controls covering CC, program change, aftertouch and pitch bend. Connectivity includes USB-C, one 5-pin MIDI In, one Out and one Out/Thru, plus four CV/gate pairs and sync in/out on 3.5mm minijacks, alongside dual footswitch inputs for hands-free operation.
