BLU-80

 
The mainstay of the Soundweb London processing system is the BLU-80. Whether your system requires more inputs than outputs, or more outputs than inputs, Soundweb London can be configured for the optimum system at the optimum cost for the client.

  • Up to 16 mic/line inputs or line level outputs in a single frame, configurable in 4 banks of 4 input or output channels

  • CobraNet - Module offering up to 32x32 network channels

  • Massive DSP power in each frame

  • Integral multi-voltage switched mode PSU for lightweight and universal AC mains operation

  • 12 analogue control ports and 6 logic outputs for GPI hardware interfacing using faders, pots, switches etc

  • Ethernet port for control network

 
The BLU-80 can accept 4 input or output cards, each card being either 4 analogue or digital inputs or 4 analogue or digital outputs. This means that a BLU-80 can be easily configured at base or in the field to provide a wide variation of I/O configurations.

  • 16 Inputs 0 Outputs

  • 12 Inputs 4 Outputs

  • 8 Inputs 8 Outputs

  • 4 Inputs 12 Outputs

  • 0 Inputs 16 Outputs

 

BLU-80

Devices may also be partially populated for even more cost-effective system design. The LED indication on the front panel provides quickly understandable signal states, whether they apply to input or output cards or to digital or analogue cards. Field upgrades are therefore very simple and easy to implement. When viewed from the rear, an LED next to each card indicates the type of card installed, so making onsite card identification very easy.

As with Soundweb Original, all analogue connections are balanced, on Phoenix/Combicon connectors.

The CobraNet module provides CobraNet audio networking for the BLU-80. This card allows up to 32 inputs and 32 outputs of digital audio at 48kHz and up to 16 inputs and 16 outputs at 96kHz sampling rates to reach each BLU-80 or BLU-32 frame.
