For years, portable speakers have had only one goal: to play music louder and louder. With the new JBL BandBox series, however, JBL is trying a different approach: not just listening, but also performance, practice, and musical interaction.
The BandBox was born as a hybrid between:
Bluetooth speaker
amplifier
mixer
karaoke system
AI platform for musicians
Let's see in detail what it is all about.
The real highlight of the series is a technology called Stem Separation AI. In real time, the BandBox can separate the tracks of vocals, drums, guitars, and other instruments directly from any song played via Bluetooth. In practice:
you can remove vocals for karaoke
lower the original guitar track to play along with it
isolate specific parts to study a song
create backing tracks on the fly
In addition to this, the features common to the entire range are:
Tuner
Metronome
Pitch/key shift
Integrated USB-C audio interface
Headphone output
Control via the JBL One app to adjust volume, EQ, tone, effects, and amplifier models
JBL BandBox is available in two versions:
Solo: the "pocket-sized" model, featuring just one input for a microphone or instrument
Trio: the extended model, featuring an integrated 4-channel mixer and more advanced functionalities
Let's look at the main differences between the two models:
Inputs
Solo: 1 Jack input for microphone or instrument + 1 AUX
Trio: 2 combo + 1 Jack + 1 AUX
Display
Solo: compact pixel LED display
Trio: larger color LCD display and more advanced interface
Audio Power
Solo: approx. 18W
Trio: approx. 135W, designed also for jam sessions and small live gigs
