    B&K setup software

    I was at my Favorite HT store today, and left with B&K Suite.
    B&K's setup software for setting up it's components using a PC.
    I had known about the software since I bought My Ref 30, but kept forgetting to ask about it when I was at the store.
    Today I remembered, and was happily surprised when they pulled a cd out of a draw, and gave it to me.

    I installed it, and it looks pretty usefull.
    I had origianally thought it was for the Ref 30 , avr 305, ,and 307 alone. upon installation I found it also is to be used with the Reference 10, 20, the AVR 101, and 202, and thier PT 3 preamp.

    Now the Ref 30 is easy enough to program using the onscreen display on your TV, ,but I thought this would be fun to try.

    My Ref 30 is currently out of the rack in it's box due to some home renovations. Hopefully in the coming days I can find a bit of time to hook it up to the computer, and give this program a try out.

    I will be sure to give my impressions after I get familiar with the program.

    Hey Bob,

    Let me know how you cobbled up the connector....there are instructions in the readme...I think. I'm going to give it a try this weekend if I can.

      Anybody know what this software does above and beyond what is available in the OSD? I downloaded the software from someplace, but I never got around to installing it.

        The software is great!
        It's much easier to program all the settings with it. First of all, there is much more information on screen at once. Presets, favorites etc, are a breeze to set/adjust this way. Best of all you can save different setups to a file and tweak to your hearts content, knowing you can restore the "good settings" at will. It also has a Virtual Front Panel, which looks identical to the ...front panel! I can sit at my PC in the loft and control my 307 if I want to play some tunes. Also, with my ETF software (room analysis), I can tweak settings while seeing an almost instantaneous graph of the changes.
        Well worth the minor connection crap you have to do. Rat Shak has the parts.

          Is Live Update working properly in your MX Editor software?
          by Chris D
          Over the last year or so, I've noticed discrepancies in Parasound's MX Editor software program to customize the MX-700 and Sidekick remotes included with the Halo C1 and C2 processors.

          Software patches??
          by KennyG
          I'm wondering something about software patches, if you have an old version of a software program...let's say...winDVD! My copy is like 2.1 so it's older.
          Jon was kind enough to send me a 2.61 patch, would this patch also include all the other mods and patches that my copy may not have?

          I was referred to this software yesterday. I have not yet fully tested the software but it looks really nice and the help files and manuals are really nice as well. :T
