Designed for studios large and small, JoeCo’s BBWR24B joins the BlueBox range of Workstation Interface Recorders as the most affordable BlueBox to date. The 24-channel unit is also a professional multitrack field recorder and back-up system that ensures no source recordings are ever lost.
Offering 24 balanced line inputs, 16 Adat Lightpipe inputs with SMUXII support for higher sample rates and 24 balanced outs in a single 19-inch rackmount unit, the BBWR24B will back-up all source recordings, all of the time. Each BBWR24B can carry up to 24 channels of 96kHz, 24-bit audio in both directions simultaneously over USB 2.0. All local recordings are standard broadcast WAV files (BWF) on FAT32 disk format. The USB 2.0 host interface supports both Windows (via dedicated drivers) and Mac (via Core Audio) with a locally generated zero latency monitor mix for monitoring during overdubs.
While the BBWR24B offers front panel access to core controls, users can access a control and customisation using the JoeCoControl app for Windows or Mac. In addition to the launch of the BBWR24B, a substantial upgrade to the JoeCoControl app will also make its debut at for 2017 Winter NAMM Show, bringing new features across the entire BlueBox range.
‘The BlueBox range has already received a fantastic welcome, and now we’re delighted to introduce a version that will work no matter which mic preamps you choose to use,’ says JoeCo MD, Joe Bull. ‘The BBWR24B, particularly when used with the expanded control and customisation options of the updated JoeCoControl app, is an extremely powerful but affordable solution for interfacing with your DAW, recording in the field and ensuring that none of your recordings are ever lost, even if the power fails.’
