Rane BB 22 Balance Buddy
The Rane BB 22 Balance Buddy take your RCA unbalanced signal and converts it to a balanced XLR signal allowing you to run the signal further without degrading the sound quality. This unit also isolates lines to stop ground loops. The Nickel core “80” Ni Transformers provide wide bandwidth and low distortion.
Unbalanced lines should always be kept under 10 feet (3 meters) to prevent undesirable effects such as hum and noise. The BB 22 allows conversion to balanced lines that can be run across a studio or a house without loss of signal quality. For instance, a BB 22 may be mounted to the back of a jukebox converting its unbalanced outputs to balanced lines, feeding an amplifier in another room.
Signal-to-noise performance is perfectly preserved using the BB 22, since it uses only passive transformers to convert signal levels. It adds no additional noise whatsoever. Use of professional quality nickel core (“80” Ni) transformers guarantee low distortion, wide bandwidth and high signal level handling capability.
