{"product_id":"burl-audio-b16-b4","title":"Burl Audio B16-B4","description":"\u003cdiv lang=\"en\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBurl Audio B16-B4\u003c\/strong\u003e – a modular B16 Mothership interface configuration fitted with the B4 mic\/line preamp card.\n\nThe B16 Mothership chassis, in a 2U format, provides two slots for conversion cards, running the same architecture and the same cards as the flagship B80 model, just at a smaller, more portable scale. The B4 card adds four channels of mic\/line preamp with a new BX6 input transformer and a fully discrete Class-A path built around the BOPA14 chip - exactly the same one used in the larger B80 platform. The swappable motherboard lets you choose the digital protocol - Pro Tools, MADI, Dante, SoundGrid, or AES\/EBU - independently of the cards installed.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe same mic path in a portable format\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe B4 card in the B16 chassis keeps an identical signal path to the one in the larger B80 unit - the same BX6 transformer, the same converter, and the same tonal characteristics - letting you access Burl Audio's signature sound without investing in the full ten-slot chassis. That solves the problem for engineers working in smaller studios or on location recordings, where conversion quality matters within a limited channel count and less gear to haul around.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUp to eight mic channels in two slots\u003c\/h3\u003e\nFilling both B16 chassis slots with B4 cards gives up to eight audiophile-grade mic\/line channels, matching the typical needs of a small tracking session or overdub work without carrying unused, empty slots in a larger chassis. This configuration works well as a compact addition to an existing recording system or as a standalone front end for a project studio with a limited number of simultaneous sources.\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\u003eSwappable motherboard: Pro Tools, MADI, Dante, SoundGrid, or AES\/EBU\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB4 card: 4-channel mic\/line preamp with ADC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew BX6 input transformer with correct mic and line impedance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully discrete Class-A analog path (BOPA14)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUp to 8 mic\/line channels with both slots fully populated\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: B4, 4-channel mic\/line preamp with ADC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInput impedance: mic 2.5k ohms, line 10k ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGain range: up to 59 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnalog path: discrete, Class-A, BX6 transformer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCard input connectors: 4 x XLR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum mic\/line channels: 8 (2 cards x 4 channels)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Burl Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54240306135377,"sku":"21915","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/BurlAudioB16-B41.jpg?v=1783858521","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/fr-fr\/products\/burl-audio-b16-b4","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
