With balanced TT/Bantam patching, stereo linking and gold-plated XLR, DB25 and TT connectors, this rack is built for engineers who demand precision, versatility and reliability—whether in the studio or on the road. Unparalleled Routing Possibilities Unlike traditional 500-series racks, the PBR 8-500 features a fully integrated TT/Bantam patchbay, offering unlimited signal flow customization. With dedicated inputs and outputs per slot and two mults for parallel processing, you can easily split signals, audition different chains or send audio between racks—all without repatching cables. Need to link adjacent modules for stereo operation? A simple button press makes it happen, with internal jumpers available for advanced routing configurations. Stable, Low-Noise Power for Superior Audio Performance Black Lion Audio leveraged years of hardware modification expertise to design a quiet, reliable power supply for the PBR 8-500. Featuring per-channel power regulation, it ensures that noise and crosstalk from one module won't interfere with another. Each slot receives a maximum of 400mA per rail, with an overall capacity of 1.6A (1.8A non-continuous) per rail, providing ample power for even the most demanding modules.

Its black-anodized aluminum faceplate gives it a sleek, professional look, while custom-tensioned TT connectors and gold-plated XLR, DB25 and TT I/O ensure maximum conductivity and signal clarity. The chassis is strategically ventilated to optimize heat dispersion, keeping your modules running cool and stable. A 500-Series Rack That Works for You With eight stereo-linkable slots, built-in patching capabilities, and a clean, isolated power supply, the PBR 8-500 redefines what a 500-series chassis can do. Whether you're tracking, mixing or experimenting with creative signal chains, this versatile, road-ready rack is designed to enhance your workflow and elevate your sound. No more re-racking—just endless creative possibilities at the push of a button.
