B.Beat on stage
B.Beat is designed to have maximum reliability during LIVE performances .
There is a special button on the [LIVE] panel that can be used the moment the Show starts because from that moment on, B.Beat's processor will be committed to maximum performance without wasting resources.
This minimizes the risk of unintentional Crash, and preserves the user from activating functions by mistake.
Organizing performance
B.Beat manages individual Backing Tracks that can be organized into convenient Playlists, or into real Shows composed of several Scenes of various types.
Projects can contain Music, Video and Images but also MIDI tracks to send messages to the various devices that are used for Live.
The philosophy behind B.Beat is to simplify the management of Backing tracks and Videos during a Show.
With B.Beat it is not necessary to bring to the stage Computers, Tablets, Sound and Video Cards, Cables, Mixers: B.Beat solves this issue in a few square Cm. and 600 gr. Weight.
