Dimensions

1HU
Depth: 19cm (7.5") (including connectors)

Weight

2 kg (4.4lbs)

Ambient temperature

41F up to 113F (+5C up to +45C)

CV Out option

Allows the output of DC voltage at the analog outputs of the Pulse16. This allows control voltages (CV) to be generated via a CV plugin in a DAW, allowing modular systems to be controlled from the analog outputs.

+24dBu I/O option

This option raises the maximum input and output level of the 16 analog inputs and outputs from +20dBu to +24dBu, which then complies with the SMPTE standard.

Please note that these are BTO (built-to-order) options which cannot be retrofitted.
