Kuvaus
When used on its own, B.BeatX is managed remotely by an App that runs on Tablets and Smartphones. Or it is ” controlled” by the connected B.Beat, via LAN connection.
Digital Mixer
B.BeatX Includes a digital mixer to manage 16 tracks on 8 separate outputs, 2 inputs, a Headphone output for Click, return from Mixer and Backing tracks. With the 8 outputs the tracks that make up the Backing Tracks can be sent to the Stage Mixer. From any source a Stereo or Mono audio signal can come back to B.Beat through the 2 inputs available, in addition B.Beat detects the Click track and can route it to any of the 8 available outputs and at the same time to the headphone output. When activating the headphone output with 4 potentiometers, the musician can balance in real time what he wants to hear on headphones during the performance.
B.Beat Expansion
B.BeatX can work in sync with B.Beat and B.Beat Pro16. This means that if you use B.Beat + B.BeatX you can build audio projects of up to 32 mono tracks (or 16 stereo) and you can use for one project 6 + 8 audio out, a total of 14 outputs. In addition, the two VIDEO outputs of the two machines allow you to have one Video track and one track for the Propter for Lyrics. On the other hand, if you use B.BeatX together with B.Beat pro16 you can have 16+16 audio tracks that will be managed on 24 audio out.
Sound Card
B.BeatX includes a proper Sound Card 8 out and 2 IN, compatible with Windows and Mac OS via our Drivers available here. Thanks to the sound card you can use, together with B.BeatX, a digitally connected pc channeling the outputs of the various tracks of B.BeatX exactly as in the Daw. This feature is most useful during Sound Check and in the rehearsal room, before transferring Backing Tracks from the Daw directly to B.Beat.
B.BeatX on stage
B.BeatX is designed to have maximum reliability during LIVE performances. There is a special button on the remote control panel [LIVE] that can be used the moment the Show starts because from that moment the processor of B.Beat will be committed to maximum performance without wasting resources. This minimizes the risk of unintentional Crash, and preserves the user from operating errors.
B.BeatX has a Synch system to use it in combination with Auto Switch systems that prevent it from stopping in the event of a Crash.
Video Output
B.BeatX has a video output, this is because on stage there is often a need to have a Video Wall along with musical performances. The same output can be used at will to display song lyrics as a cue card. Scores can be uploaded as PDFs, and for each instrument on the stage you can have a dedicated score. The score can be displayed on wireless Smart Device.
Organizing the Performance
B.BeatX handles individual Backing Tracks that can be organized into handy Playlists, or actual Shows consisting of multiple different types of Scenes. Projects can contain Music, Videos and Images but also MIDI tracks to send messages to the several devices that are used for the Live. The guiding philosophy behind B.Beat is to simplify the management of Backing tracks and Videos during a Show. With B.BeatX there is no need to bring Computers, Tablets, Sound and Video Cards, Cables, Mixers to the stage.
Preparing B.Beat for the Show
Create your Backing Tracks with your DAW, and once the work in the recording studio is complete, you are ready to transfer the music to B.BeatX. To do this, an app called B.Beat Manager is included and runs on both Windows PC and Mac. With the Manager, you will assign outputs to the various tracks and complete the editing by adjusting the volumes as desired. If you have synchronized videos to the music, you can upload everything to B.Beat.
Metronome and Click
B.BeatX has a dedicated Metronome session. You can very easily manage a metronome directly on stage. The audio Click of the metronome can come out on one of the 8 outputs, and at the same time to the headphone output, if it has been set. The same thing happens with the Click when it is recorded on the Backing Tracks. When the Click track is present in the multitrack Backing Tracks it is detected and sent to a separate output and to the headphones.
Rack Panel
B.BeatX can be installed in a practical optional panel that goes on two Rack units. This will make it super easy to join it with the other devices we use for our Live Show.
