BooBox 8

Real-Time Programming
The ScareMaster is the only way to harness the full potential of the BooBox. The ScareMaster allows you to program even the most complicated scenes with ease. Program any number of outputs at a time, including DMX lighting, with the same ease of use we pioneered with the original BooBox. All of the BooBox’s many configuration options can also be easily changed using the ScareMaster’s LCD interface.

Audio
The BooBox 8+ has a built in MP3 player that can play hours of CD quality sound. Like everything else in the BooBox, the MP3 player is customized to suit your needs. Play ambient music while the BooBox is idle, then when it’s time to scare, use the adjustable delays to play the scare sound at just the right time. Don't get stuck choosing between looping a sound or working one off a trigger when the BooBox can do both.

Ambient and Scare Modes
The Ambient mode is used to build anticipation of the scare. While the BooBox is not scaring, it is by default in ambient mode. Program this mode with what you want the patrons to see and hear as they approach the scare - a little foreshadowing of the terror to come. Multiple ambient scenes can be programmed and the BooBox will automatically cycle through them after each scare.

Servo Outputs
Two servo outputs are available to drive standard RC servos. Great for accurately controlling the eyes or mouth of an elaborate prop. Standard and wide-range servos are both supported.

DMX Compatible
DMX is the industry standard interface for theatre and stage lighting. The addition of DMX to the BooBox allows you to incorporate any DMX device into your scene. DMX dimmers, smoke machines, strobes, wash lights, control any or all of them with unbelievable ease. Any effect can be programmed, fading in and out, throbbing effects and power failures. Not to mention that all these effects are programmed and played back in sync with your sound! DMX programming requires the ScareMaster programmer. The BooBox can also be set to act as a DMX slave to any other DMX controller.

Trigger Inputs
The BooBox 8+ has eight optically-isolated inputs which can be used with normally-open or normally-closed contacts. Adjustable pre and post-delays can be set for each input. Triggers can also be set to stop a scene, loop on a schedule, or increment through different scenes.

Outputs
The BooBox 8+ has two 5 amp relay outputs and 6 solid-state outputs. The relay outputs are perfect for controlling smoke machines or a 120V load. The solid-state outputs are ideal for controlling solenoids and relays. Each output has two large terminals for easy wiring, just put the two solenoid wires right into the terminals and tighten, no splicing required!

AC Outputs
While you can still wire 120V AC devices to the BooBox 8+’s two relay outputs, the safest and easiest way to switch AC is to connect one of our Output Accessories. Just plug one into the expansion port and the BooBox 8+ will control the outlets as if they were its own.

Firmware Upgrades
The SD Flash Card not only makes transferring sounds and programs simple, it also makes it possible to implement firmware upgrades. Firmware upgrades are program changes made to improve the BooBox. Added features are now only a free download away, no matter when you buy your BooBox 8+ you will always have all the latest features.
