Burl Audio B16-BMB3-M3-1612 — a ready-made AD/DA system in a B16 Mothership 3 chassis, fitted with a BMB3 Dante motherboard, a BAD16 card (16-channel ADC), and a BDA12 card with twelve line outputs plus a built-in two-channel class-A monitor section.
Input conversion runs through transformer-coupled, discrete class-A circuitry with the BX8 transformer, while the line and monitor outputs use a discrete class-A path with the BOPA14 op-amp. The BMB3 motherboard provides two Dante Ethernet ports carrying up to 64 I/O channels at 44.1, 48 or 96kHz, and up to 32 channels at 176.4 or 192kHz.
Native integration with a Dante network
Studios built around a Dante network usually need a separate converter to bring analog sources and outputs into the existing infrastructure, which complicates routing and adds another link in the chain. The BMB3 addresses this with two direct Dante ports that show up in Dante Controller alongside every other device on the network, with no interfacing card in between. Sixteen input channels with the BX8 transformer go straight onto the existing Dante network, keeping the BURL Audio analog character intact.
A complete system with monitoring in one chassis
A compact Dante rig usually needs a separate monitor controller just to switch between speakers and headphones, adding one more box to the rack. The BDA12 card removes that step by integrating a switchable Speaker A, Speaker B and Headphones section right on the DAC card, running through the same class-A path as the twelve line outputs. That means a sixteen-in, twelve-out set with full monitor control fits in just two rack units, with no extra cabling to an outboard controller.
