The best system for foolproof set up! GO.8 Is an automatic backing track switcher with back up. It is
capable of automatically switching 8 Audio channels, one Midi line, one
Video line. GO.8 works with BBeat and Computer-based systems.
GO.8 is an automatic switcher for redundant backup management. It is in
capable of automatically switching 8 Audio channels, one Midi line, one
Video line. Switching can be between two audio players such as computers with sequencers, or two B.Beat or other sound and/or video sources.
GO.8 is ideal for live concerts and theatrical performances where
Backing Tracks, Midi and Video tracks that cannot be interrupted are used.
GO.8 exploits a gate that detects the crash of the main machine and switches to the "backup" machine in real time, ensuring continuity even in case of failure.
Two groups of audio inputs (with 8 balanced channels), two video inputs, and two Midi inputs are available, and switching between the two groups is done automatically by means of a SYNCH-specific audio signal (sinusoidal, 1 kHz frequency) on GO.8 channel 8. As soon as the lack of this signal is detected, the device switches to input group B (redundant).
Switching can also be done in a manual manner using the SELECT button on the front panel.
