Optimised for High Channel Counts

With its 16-channel analogue-to-digital conversion and 12-channel digital-to-analogue conversion, this system delivers extensive channel capacity, ensuring that studios with high input and output needs can operate efficiently. The increased channel density provided by the BX8 transformers allows more channels within the same physical space, enhancing studio setups without the need for larger equipment footprints.

Dante Compatibility for Seamless Integration

The inclusion of the BMB3-Dante motherboard ensures seamless integration with Dante audio networking protocols, making the B16 Mothership 3 bundle a flexible choice for studios looking to expand or streamline their digital audio workflows. This feature enables high-quality, low-latency audio transmission across networks, simplifying complex setups in larger or multi-room studio environments.

Cost-Effective and Scalable Design

The B16 Mothership 3 is designed to be a more affordable alternative to Burl Audio’s existing GREEN line, providing the same high-quality analogue conversion at a lower cost per channel. This makes it an attractive option for project studios, recording artists, and professionals who require premium audio technology but have budget constraints. Additionally, the system can be expanded to support larger channel counts by incorporating multiple BAD16 and BDA12 cards in a B80 chassis, making it scalable for large-scale studios.

Superior Sound Quality with BAD16 and BDA12

The bundle includes the BAD16, a 16-channel Class-A analogue-to-digital converter card with the NextGen BX8 transformers, and the BDA12, a 12-channel Class-A digital-to-analogue converter card with the BOPA14 op-amp. These components ensure high-fidelity conversion, whether you’re capturing audio or monitoring it, providing studios with the professional-grade sound that Burl Audio is renowned for.

Flexible Monitoring Options

The BDA12 card also includes built-in stereo monitoring capabilities for both speakers and headphones, giving engineers versatile monitoring options during recording and mixing sessions. This feature is essential for critical listening environments where audio accuracy and clarity are paramount.

Ideal for Project Studios and Large-Scale Setups

The Burl Audio B16 Mothership 3 bundle is designed to serve a wide range of studio environments. For smaller project studios, it offers a compact yet powerful 16-in/12-out recording solution. For larger studios, the system can scale up to 128 input channels when integrated with a B80 chassis, making it a versatile choice for setups that require extensive channel capacity at a competitive price.

Future-Proof with Mothership 3 Compatibility

The B16 Mothership 3 is fully compatible with the latest MOTHERSHIP 3 platform, ensuring users can expand and upgrade their systems as their needs evolve. This compatibility allows studios to unlock the full potential of their B16 system, providing more power, flexibility, and future scalability.
