The ELMA version replaces the standard ALPS potentiometer with a switch built on 0.1%-tolerance matched resistors, keeping the same setting precision as the larger chassis.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eStepped-switch precision in a compact chassis\u003c\/h3\u003e\nStepped level control via the ELMA switch lets you return to exactly the same monitoring setting between sessions, whether the unit lives permanently in a studio or travels between different recording locations. That matters for mobile work, where a room's acoustic conditions can vary, but repeatable reference levels across sessions remain essential for consistent mixing decisions.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA flexible setup with a second open slot\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe B16 chassis' second slot can be filled with an ADC conversion card, such as a BAD4 or B4, creating a complete tracking-and-monitoring path in one small unit instead of pairing a separate recording interface with an external monitor controller. That setup cuts the number of devices in a traveling recording rig without giving up precise, analog control over monitoring level.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB16 Mothership 2U chassis with two conversion card slots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB22 ORCA card: 4-channel DAC with a control room monitoring section\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo mix\/mastering channels with a switchable BX5 output transformer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo channels feeding stereo speaker and headphone outputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eELMA stepped switch with 0.1% matched resistors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecond slot available for an additional ADC conversion card\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSystem type: modular AD\/DA interface, 2U chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of card slots: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConversion card: B22 ORCA, 4-channel DAC with monitor controller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnalog path: discrete, Class-A (BOPA14), BX5 transformer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDynamic range: 115 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTHD+N: -96 dB, full scale output +22 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCard connectivity: 8-channel DB25 (Tascam style)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLevel control: ELMA stepped switch (0.1% resistors)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Burl Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54240305676625,"sku":"21913","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/BurlAudioB16-B22-ELMA1.jpg?v=1783858539","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/fr-fr\/products\/burl-audio-b16-b22-elma","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
