The Avid® Pro Tools | Carbon audio interface for music production has been described as a creative game changer; its innovative use of eight onboard HDX processors and a custom FPGA enable you to track and monitor with near-zero latency when using AAX DSP plug-ins. Because Carbon connects to your Mac® over Ethernet using a proprietary version of AVB (Audio Video Bridging, aka IEEE 802.1), you’ll have to use an AVB capable Thunderbolt™ Gigabit Ethernet adapter if your computer doesn’t have onboard Ethernet. The Avid Qualified Sonnet Thunderbolt AVB adapter is your single-adapter solution for connecting your supported Mac with Thunderbolt ports to the Carbon interface.

Connect to Other Devices On a Network

Beyond its support for the Pro Tools | Carbon interface, the Sonnet Thunderbolt AVB Adapter enables you to add your Mac as an endpoint in an AVB network and connect to other devices such as audio interfaces, mixers, plug-in processors, personal monitor stations, stage boxes, speakers, speaker processors, and others. Audio Video Bridging support makes the adapter perfect for use in pro audio and video applications where synchronization of data streams is critical.

What is the Benefit of an AVB Network?

An AVB network is extremely reliable since it is designed to reserve a portion of the available Ethernet network bandwidth for its own data. Packets of AVB data are sent regularly in allocated slots within the reserved bandwidth, ensuring AVB packets maintain time synchronization.

Operation

Operating off its Thunderbolt connection, Sonnet’s Thunderbolt AVB Adapter is bus-powered, so there’s no need to plug in a power supply or power cable.

Gigabit Ethernet to Go

The Sonnet Thunderbolt AVB Adapter measures just 1.5 inches wide by 3.9 inches deep by 0.8 inches tall, small enough to tuck out of sight or fit easily into a pocket in your backpack or equipment bag. Enabling truly portable use, the Sonnet adapter is powered by your computer’s Thunderbolt port, connected through the included Thunderbolt cable.

Drivers and Configuration App Built Into macOS

The basic drivers that support the Sonnet Thunderbolt Adapter are included in macOS®. Basic configuration takes place in Network control panel, while configuration for use in AVB applications is handled in the Audio MIDI Setup application and control software.

Great product

Strong and perfect fit. Perfect for a technician

Great device - highly recommend it

I am using the BR10 to connect my older sub-woofer to my newer wireless 2.0 speakers thereby making it a 2.1 system that works very well. It was simple to set up and is easy to use and provides great sound and extra punch to my music. The app is really good as well and the extra bass function provides some crazy bass out of the sub-woofer if you want to terrorise the dog.

Highly recommend this relatively cheap device that has bridged the gap between my old and new music system.

Impressed with Koala Audio and Pianoteq

I recently purchased Pianoteq 8 Standard from Koala Audio and am very happy with the service I received.
I'm loving Pianoteq and took advantage of a recent sale to upgrade to Pianoteq 8 Pro. Again, the service I received from the owner on the phone was first class.
Five stars.
