The JoeCo BlackBox BBR64-DANTE 64-Track Recorder is designed to record and replay up to 64 channels of audio data from a Dante network using standard Broadcast WAV files.
The JoeCo BlackBox BBR64-DANTE 64-Track Recorder is based on the award-winning, tried and tested BlackBox Recorder design. However, rather than being limited to recording 24 channels of audio, the JoeCo BlackBox BBR64-DANTE is designed to record and replay up to 64 channels of audio data from a Dante network using standard Broadcast WAV files. Developed to solve the inherent problems of working with computer-based systems in a live performance environment, the JoeCo BlackBox BBR64-DANTE 64-Track Recorder provides engineers with a computer-free, high-quality solution for multi-channel live audio capture. The JoeCo BlackBox BBR64-DANTE Recorder can capture up to 64 channels of audio at 44.1kHz and 48kHz directly to Broadcast WAV files on an external USB2 (FAT32 formatted) drive.
The recorder connects to any Dante-enabled network device from a range of console and converter manufacturers including Allen & Heath, Yamaha, MIDAS, DiGiCo and Focusrite to name but a few. Designed to support standard network components and switches, it can also record 8 channels of analogue (balanced line in) alongside 24 channels of Dante for capturing audience and ambience. The unit will lock to or generate word clock, as well as locking to the incoming Dante audio stream. Individual channels or pairs of channels can be monitored on an internal PFL bus providing both hi-resolution metering and headphone output. The JoeCo BlackBox BBR64-DANTE Recorder is designed to be supremely simple to use, requiring just the input and output connections, power and a USB drive before pressing the RECORD button. A full colour LCD screen and striking LED displays show all the information the recording engineer needs in order to know what's happening. The JoeCo BlackBox BBR64-DANTE also includes numerous safety features, inherited from the original BlackBox Recorder, to keep your recording as secure as possible. Safe & Sound Record Recovery will recover files even if the power fails in the middle of a recording.
