At Knobcon 2023, 1010music is introducing bluebox Eurorack edition – a new Eurorack mixer with effects and multichannel recording/playback, based on their bluebox desktop mixer.

The Eurorack version adds new features, like USB-C ports for connecting external MIDI controllers and sending 2 channels of audio to your computer.

Bluebox delivers high-quality mixing, effects and integrated recording and playback in a 30hp Eurorack module. It features a touchscreen and knobs to let you quickly control volume, gain, 4 band parametric EQ, pan, effects, mute/solo and record/play functions for each track.

You can map the 3.5 mm TS inputs to 12 mono tracks or 6 stereo tracks, all with independent control for recording and playback. You can route each track independently to outputs and effects sends. Record independent tracks or the Main mix to a standard microSD card or send/receive audio to your computer via USB-C.
