BCI allows you to use cards made for the Tiptop Audio Z-DSP with the Pico DSP from EricaSynths.

A couple of times, customers feared about modifying their Pico DSP and asked about a ready-to-play version.

With this pack, you'll receive a modified Pico DSP with the BCI version of your choice. All you have to do is add your own Z-DSP compatible card!

When choosing the BP version, the original EEPROM from the Pico DSP will be soldered back onto a card.

With the 2HP version, the EEPROM will be soldered back onto BCI, so the original algorithms can still be accessed when no card is inserted. BCI would then automatically switch to the card's algorithms when detected.

All parameters are accessible and are arranged as follows (this cannot be changed). The Pico outputs will be fully wet :

On the Pico DSP the algorithms order do not go from 1 to 8. Please refer to the following table to define the correct order, based on the card's documentation :
