JoeCo BandMate - Multi-Channel Backing Track Player

JoeCo BandMate - Multi-Channel Backing Track Player

Introducing the JoeCo BandMate, a 24-channel backing track player with MIDI, ready to become the most reliable member of your band.
BandMate makes it simple for you to create remarkable live performances without the risk of relying on a laptop.
Robust, easy to operate and affordable, BandMate is the solution that thousands of performing musicians have been waiting for.

User friendly operation
BandMate will revolutionise your live show with 24 channels of audio playback alongside MIDI data for the control and update of equipment such as effects pedals and lighting controllers. It's also supported by a pair of apps for quick, intuitive operation.

With BandMate, organising your playback for a gig is as simple as putting together a setlist in the BandMate app.
Once you're on stage, BandMate takes care of the rest – each track is automatically loaded in the order of the setlist, meaning you can focus on your performance, not the technology.

Playback can be controlled and triggered via the front panel, a footswitch, MIDI command or the Remote app. Audio and MIDI data as well as playlists are stored on a local USB memory stick.

Mixed output
As well as the 24 individual balanced outputs to drive a stage box or mixing console, BandMate can also send outputs 23 and 24 to an unbalanced stereo TRS jack. This provides a mixed output from the box to work with small, individual PA systems. The outputs include protection circuitry against inadvertent phantom power damaging the electronics while an earth lift switch separates the system chassis ground from the signal output screen ground to help with eliminating earth loops.
Each channel has a front panel LED display to show that an audio track is present and indicate when there is signal present.
