Built to proven Black Lion Audio standards of build quality and signal conductivity, the PBR TT-LIT features a customisable, brightly-lit LED display for every front panel connection point.

With PBR TT-LIT patchbays, you’ll have an easier time routing your signals while adding instant vibe to your studio. Save the labels and markers for your next yard sale.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

Functional, Customisable, and Good-Lookin’:

PBR TT-LIT’s LED display supports up to 6 characters per channel to describe your connections. A quick touch of the Display button can be used to turn it off.

To customise the display, you have two options: simply connect a USB keyboard to the front of the unit and start typing… or you can use the included PatchCAD software to customise the LED display on your computer, and export them to a USB drive to load directly into the unit.

PatchCAD (Mac/Win) lets you customise your LED display using a quick, familiar spreadsheet-like interface. Simply type out how you want your display to appear, export the file to a USB drive, and connect the USB drive to your LIT patchbay and press theUpdate button.

Studio Grade Connectivity:

Your studio needs more than accessible patching – audio quality throughout every signal chain is essential. Black Lion has been improving already-great gear through our modification service for years, and we channeled all that know-how straight into the PBR TT-LIT.

The PBR TT-LIT is a 96-point TT patchbay, built for the most demanding of studios; loaded with 96 TT connectors on the front and 12 DB25 connectors on the rear; all audiophile-grade and gold-plated.

Limitless Flexibility and Road-Worthy Construction:

Per-module mode-switching is accessed via recessed switches on the top panel for configuring normalisation modes; the switches are rated to10,000+ operations without failure. A grounding connection is available on the rear to prevent noisy ground loops.

Black Lion’s team of engineers have worked tirelessly to ensure that the PBR TT delivers proper quality through-and-through. The PBR TT-LIT is also built Black Lion-tough, with a reinforced steel chassis and black-anodised aluminum faceplates that make for a matched and sophisticated look.

PatchCAD BLA Edition:

Owners of the PBR TT-LIT patchbay also get PatchCAD BLA Edition, an app that lets you also customise your LED display as well as print custom labels for your traditional patchbays!
