We present to you
Thank you for choosing B.Beat, an inno-
vative and unique product. B.Beat is the
ideal tool to enrich and simplify Live per-
formances of Bands using Stereo or Multi-
track Sequences, even with synchronized
Video and Images. Here we want to sum-
marise the main features of the device:
READING MUSIC FILES AND VIDEOS READING MUSIC FILES AND VIDEOS
B.Beat plays Music files in WAV 24 Bit per
sample format (if the file is 16 or 32 Bit it
is converted to 24 Bit), Multitrack Audio,
Stems, Midi, Video Mp4 and JPG. B.Beat
reads various digital 1 formats, from sim-
ple Mp3 files to full-fledged multitrack
audio projects from Daw. B.Beat can store
many Backing Tracks and the available
space depends on the available internal
memory versions:
For example, in the 128 GB version with
Backing Tracks on 4 mono tracks, around
60 hours of music can be stored. The cal-
culation is indicative and depends on sev-
eral non-standardisable factors.
We suggest completing the editing of
the Backing Tracks via the DAWs you use for
recording before importing the project into
B.Beat. Any changes to timbres and effects
will not be possible once the project is load-
ed into B.Beat. Backing Tracks can be syn-
chronised to a Video or Images that will be
transmitted to the Video Wall from the HDMI
output. Synchronisation operations must be
performed with dedicated Apps before up-
loading Audio - Video projects to B.Beat.

INTEGRATED DIGITAL MIXER INTEGRATED DIGITAL MIXER
B.Beat includes a digital mixer to handle
the separate outputs and inputs, a head-
phone output for Click, return from Mixer
and Backing tracks; with 4 convenient
potentiometers the musician can balance
in real time what he wants to hear in the
headphones during the performance. The
separate outputs can be used to send
Backing Tracks to the stage Mixer. An au-
dio signal can be fed back to B.Beat from
any source via the inputs, and B.Beat rec-
ognises the Click track and can feed it to
any of the available outputs and simulta-
neously to the headphone output.
B.BEAT ON STAGE B.BEAT ON STAGE
B.Beat has been studied and designed for
maximum reliability during LIVE performanc-
es. There is a special button on the [LIVE]
panel that can be used the moment the
show starts because from that moment
on, the processor of the B.Beat will be busy
ensuring maximum performance without
wasting resources.
B.Beat handles individual Backing Tracks
that can be organised into convenient
Playlists, or actual Shows consisting
of several scenes. Projects can contain
Music, Video and Pictures but also MIDI
tracks to send messages to the various
Live devices. The philosophy behind B.Beat
is to simplify the management of Backing
Tracks and Videos during a Show. With
B.Beat there is no need to bring Comput-
ers, Tablets, Sound and Video cards, Ca-
bles, more or less small Mixers and other
accessory devices onto the stage: B.Beat
We present to you
solves this issue without the need for ad-
ditional peripherals.
PREPARING B.BEAT FOR THE SHOW PREPARING B.BEAT FOR THE SHOW
The Backing tracks and videos that make up
the show you want to manage with B.Beat
must be created with your DAW and the
dedicated Apps. Once you have finished your
studio work by also completing the synchro-
nisation with the videos accompanying the
music, you are ready to transfer the music
material to B.Beat. The video may also be
unsynchronised. Connect B.Beat to your
computer (Windows or Mac OS) via network
cable and launch the B.Beat Manager App:
from now on you can import all material re-
quired for the show into B.Beat. On B.Beat
Manager you can compose playlists, or you
can put together a real show consisting of
several scenes. You can also combine the
audio tracks with a Midi track that can be
used to launch Midi commands to the devic-
es you use on stage.
If you have Mp3 backing tracks that you sim-
ply want to upload to B.Beat without going
through the PC, you can use the USB stick
and very quickly transfer the files to the in-
ternal memory, or you can play them directly
from the stick. If they were Backing Tracks
without Click you can add it directly from
B.Beat or from B.Beat Manager via a special
function based on Artificial Intelligence algo-
rithms.
ADVANCED FUNCTIONS ADVANCED FUNCTIONS
B.Beat can transmit via HDMI both a video
commentary of the music and the video
that includes the lyrics of the song being
played. It can also send scores via WI Fi
via the free Prompter app (for Android and
iOs). Lyrics and scores information can
be uploaded via the accompanying B.Beat
MANAGER App.
With the same App you can remotely con-
trol all functions of B.Beat.
