Description
The Burl Audio BAD16 is the latest BURL BLACK Monitor and DAC Daughter Card offering for the BURL Audio B80 and B16 Motherships. The BAD16 features 16 channels of all discrete transistor, class-A, transformer coupled, Analog to Digital Conversion. The BAD16 employs the latest BURL Audio NextGen analog section featuring the brand new BX8 transformer, a smaller form factor input transformer for higher channel density.
With its higher channel density, the BAD16 brings the superior class-A analog technology that BURL Audio is known for, at a lower cost per ADC channel compared to the existing BURL GREEN ADC line.
The BAD16 in a B16 chassis is the ideal 16 channel input solution for recording musicians or project studios who have yearned for a Mothership, but the price point was beyond their budget. The BAD16 now brings the incredible BURL Audio fidelity to those looking to up their game without breaking the bank.
The BAD16 in a B80 chassis is also ideal for those who need a very large input channel count in one B80 chassis. With 8 BAD16s in a B80 chassis, the maximum input channel count is 128 input channels when using a BMB2-MADI or BMB3-DANTE at 44.1kHz or 48kHz. Likewise a 64 input x 64 output B80 can be realized in one B80 chassis using any B80-BMBx Motherboard and the complementary BDA16.
