Replace Complex Playback Rigs with One Dedicated Device
The M-Live B.Beat 128GB Backing Track & MIDI Playback System is designed to simplify modern live performances by bringing multiple essential functions together in one compact unit. Rather than relying on a laptop, audio interface, playback software and separate video systems, B.Beat handles backing tracks, MIDI data, visual content and audio routing from a single piece of hardware. This streamlined approach reduces setup time, minimises potential technical issues and provides greater confidence during rehearsals, gigs and tours.
Whether you're performing solo, as part of a duo, in a function band or with a larger touring production, B.Beat helps create a more organised and professional live setup.
Professional Backing Track and Multitrack Playback
B.Beat supports a wide range of audio formats, including MP3, WAV, stems, MTA files and DAW projects. With support for up to 16 mono tracks or eight stereo tracks, performers can incorporate backing vocals, percussion, orchestral arrangements, synth layers and other supporting elements into their productions. This allows artists to deliver fuller performances while maintaining precise control over every aspect of their playback.
Playlist and Show modes make it easy to organise songs and complete productions, helping performances run smoothly from the first song to the last.
Flexible Audio Routing for Stage and Monitoring
The integrated digital mixer gives performers and engineers extensive control over audio routing. Six independent outputs allow backing tracks, stems and click tracks to be sent to separate destinations, making it easy to create professional monitoring systems and front of house mixes. Dedicated headphone monitoring and individual level controls provide further flexibility, helping performers hear exactly what they need throughout a show.
This routing flexibility makes B.Beat particularly valuable for acts that rely on click tracks, multitrack playback and carefully balanced monitor mixes.
Synchronised Audio, Video and Visual Content
Beyond audio playback, B.Beat can synchronise video files and images alongside your music. Visual content can be triggered automatically during songs, helping create more engaging productions for audiences while ensuring presentations, background visuals and performance media remain perfectly aligned with the music.
This capability makes the B.Beat suitable for live events, theatre productions, houses of worship, corporate presentations and artists looking to enhance their performances with coordinated visuals.
Automate Your Show with MIDI Integration
B.Beat allows MIDI information to be incorporated into projects, enabling automatic communication with compatible external equipment. MIDI messages can be sent at specific points during a performance, helping control connected devices and reducing the need for manual operation on stage.
By automating key functions, performers can focus more on delivering their show and less on managing equipment between songs.
Built for Reliable Live Performance
Designed specifically for the demands of live use, B.Beat includes a dedicated LIVE mode that optimises system performance for playback applications. Combined with its compact design, generous 128GB internal storage and ability to operate from compatible USB power banks for approximately six hours, it provides a dependable solution for performers who need professional playback and show control wherever they perform.
