Black Lion Audio PBR TRS3 LIT is a professional 48‑point TRS patchbay featuring a fully customizable, backlit LED display above every connection point. It makes studio routing far more intuitive, allowing you to see exactly what each input and output is doing at a glance – no more tape, stickers or handwritten labels across the front panel.
PBR TRS3 LIT is built for pristine audio performance, with 96 audiophile‑grade, gold‑plated 1/4" TRS jacks that ensure excellent conductivity and signal integrity. Rear‑panel three‑way switches let you choose between Normal, Half-normal and Thru modes on a per‑channel basis, giving you huge routing flexibility for multing, parallel processing, bypassing and monitoring. Channel names can be entered directly via a USB keyboard or created in the companion PatchCAD software and then loaded into the unit, turning the patchbay into a clearly labelled routing hub for any studio.
