Black Lion Audio - PBR TRS3

When you're setting up a studio, you soon realise that the organisation of the signal is just as important as the quality of the machines themselves. And that's exactly where the Black Lion PBR TRS3 comes in. This 48-point TRS patchbay is designed for those who want to keep their signal clean, clear and, above all, easily accessible, without compromising on audio quality.

With 96 gold-plated 6.35 mm jack connectors on the front and rear, it ensures excellent conductivity and coloration-free transmission. Its 1U format makes it easy to fit into any rack without taking up too much space.

And because every studio works differently, Black Lion had the good idea of adding switches at the rear to configure each pair of jacks in three modes: normal, semi-normal or thru. As a result, you can adapt the routing to your habits without having to touch the cables every time you change them, unlike the PBR TRS, which doesn't have any.

Another strong point is the serious construction. Reinforced steel chassis, black anodised aluminium front panel... it all exudes reliability. Whether it's for a fixed studio or a nomadic installation, it's tough stuff. And because Black Lion thinks of everything, the patchbay comes with labels so you can quickly identify each connection point. No more fumbling for cables in the middle of a session.

In short, if you're looking for a patchbay that's simple, effective, well built and above all capable of adapting to all configurations, the PBR TRS3 ticks all the boxes. A great tool for keeping your setup clean, clear and superbly functional on a daily basis.
