BSS EC-4BV-BLK-US Ethernet Controller
The BSS EC-4BV-BLK-US is a professional wall-mounted control interface designed for integrated audio system management in the studio environment. This single-gang Decora-format controller delivers tactile, real-time access to networked audio devices through an intuitive combination of physical controls and visual feedback, making it essential for permanent studio installations requiring hands-on parameter adjustment during recording and mixing sessions.
Control Interface & Display
The controller features a push/rotary encoder with dedicated encoder ring alongside four programmable buttons, giving engineers multiple input methods for system navigation and session preset recall. A 64×128-pixel LCD screen with eight-color multi-color backlighting and adjustable intensity provides clear visual feedback in any studio lighting condition, while a sleep mode automatically dims LEDs during periods of inactivity to extend component lifespan and reduce visual distraction during recording.
Network Architecture & Studio Integration
Connectivity is handled through a single Ethernet port supporting Power over Ethernet (PoE), eliminating the need for separate power infrastructure while enabling communication with BSS Audio Soundweb London, Crown DCi series amplifiers, and other HiQnet-compatible devices in your networked studio setup. Configuration and system design are managed through the HiQnet Audio Architect software with drag-and-drop interface, streamlining setup and reconfiguration between projects and sessions.
