The PC1600x has the ability to send Note On commands using a fader (with 
th= e note velocity controlled by the fader position).  This works quite 
nicely with the PC1600x but apparently the Behringer lacks that 
capability?

I believe the Kenton "Control Freak" can also send any MIDI command as well.

I think that Midi Solutions has a small little "black box" that might be 
able to convert your CC to Note Velocity.  One of their Event Processors 
may be able to do that.
