Inavate review AudioPressBox press units
Inavate's conclusion: These are NOT your average audio press feeds.
Rave reviews for AudioPressBox’s 112-SB-D a 1-input, 12-output audio feed, especially its ability to work with Dante - “plug it into your Dante network with a PoE switch and you are off to the races.”
"The unit was up and working in about 3 seconds from plugging it into the switch. Power up was immediate and showed up in Dante Controller and was ready to patch instantly. Boot time is a massive thing I assess anytime I look at equipment, as sometimes, as hard as we try, things get unplugged when they shouldn’t…and how fast they reboot is usually the difference between an unfortunate accident and total show meltdown."
The APB-244C (all analog, dual input with some basic level adjustment, and 24 outputs) came highly rated too. Features the reviewer loved included:
- The High Pass Filter, Phantom Power, and Comp on each input
- a Li-Ion battery pack that charges every time you are connected to AC
- multiple take off points for monitoring
- selectable Mic or Line output PER CONNECTOR
- an Oscillator for getting camera audio levels set consistently in advance
- the ability to use it as two independent feeds, useful for providing distribution of simultaneously interpreted feeds to the press.
