The JoeCo Blackbox BBR1MP Multi-track Recorder does not mess around. With 24-channels as well as 24 high-quality microphone preamps, operating at up to 24bit/96kHz, it is designed for the broadcast engineer and for location sound acquisition. It is also simple to add 24 channels of Dante or MADI I/O to the BBR1MP unit with interface cards.
Connection options include individually switchable mic/line inputs and balanced outputs, video sync, timecode and word clock inputs. Microphones can either be connected to the unit via tails from the rear D-Sub connectors, or via an optional 2U breakout panel with XLR connectors.
Audio is recorded direct to an external USB2 drive in Broadcast WAV format for instant ingest into post production. Alongside the BBR1MP’s multi-channel recording capabilities, provision is included for creating a simultaneous stereo mixdown. Full support for iXML data is also provided.
The unit is fully controllable via JoeCoRemote for iPad. The BBR1MP’s compact dimensions, high-quality mic preamps and converters make it a practical, elegant solution for a range of broadcast applications, as well as for live engineers needing a portable multi-channel recording option.
