Black Lion Audio PBR8 8 Slot 500-Series Rack/Patchbay

Equipped with a fully balanced TT/Bantam patchbay, the PBR-8 has unlimited routing options for quickly dialing in sounds that don’t require modules to be loaded in any particular order. Easily try out a signal chain, re-route it, split it using one of the built-in “Mults”, send it to modules in another rack, route it back, then send it out, all from the front panel.

Providing a stable and reliable power supply has been long been one of the issues dogging the 500-series format. To solve this issue, the PBR-8 features OST (On Slot Technology) developed in Europe by Heritage Audio. This technology allows us to take advantage of individual regulation per channel, ensuring that noise, power issues or crosstalk of one module do not affect other modules. The hefty power supply provides 400mA per rail per slot maximum, with an overall of 1.6A (1.8A non continuous) per rail, whichever is reached first. Coupled with the patchbay, this OST makes the PBR-8 one of the quietest and most reliable 500 series power supplies.
