JoeCo BBR64-DANTE

The records at 44.1kHz and 48kHz directly to Broadcast WAV files on an external USB2 drive. (Higher sample rate recording is also accommodated at a reduced track count.)

The BBR64-DANTE connects to any Dante™-enabled 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 56 channels of Dante for capturing audience and ambience.

The BBR64-DANTE will lock to or generate word clock, as well as locking to the incoming Dante audio stream. In addition to the PFL bus providing both hi-resolution metering and headphone monitoring, an additional "mix" feature has been added to the headphone output.

Discover how Dante technology can take the stress out of capturing live multi-channel audio via network. This series of speed draw video animations shows why it's currently one of the hottest AV networking solutions around.

Standard DANTE Ethernet connection on RJ45 connector. Wordclock in or out (switchable BNC). 8 x balanced analogue inputs on 25w D-type (Tascam format)
