Embedding from professional balanced audio at pro 24 dBu to 0 dBFS, to levels using full 24-bit conversion.

BlueBox™ offers excellent performance and excels to a new level of ease of use and installation practicality. The BlueBox™ BBG-EM-AA  3G/HD/SD Analog Audio Embedder provides embedding from professional balanced audio at pro 24 dBu to 0 dBFS to levels using full 24-bit conversion.

Embed selection can be configured using the device DIP switches or by using an intuitive GUI application that communicates with BBG-EM-AA over a PC’s USB port. The GUI app allows dynamic configuration control, status display, audio meters, tone generators, and other advanced control functions not commonly found on “throwdown” packages. When configured using the GUI app, the USB connection can be removed with all settings held in non-volatile device memory.
