The Radial JX44 Air Control
is a high performance guitar signal manager designed for
the most demanding professional concert stages where wireless
guitar systems, acoustics, effects and multiple amplifiers
are used simultaneously. It features 4 inputs. Effects loops,
six amplifier outputs and much more.
To ensure the highest quality signal
transfer, the four instrument inputs employ Radial’s
unique class-A buffering topology with 100% discreet components.
Inputs A & B are augmented with Drag™ Control
load correction that lets you ‘dial in’ the
perfect load for the most natural tone, while inputs B &C
are equipped with a trim level that let you quickly balance
signal levels.
There are two effects loops: A remotely
controllable ‘local’ effects loop provides an
easy interface to drawer-filled pedals or multi-effects
processors and the built-in Radial SGI-44 (Special version
of the Studio Guitar Interface) provides a noise-free connection
to-and-from distant pedalboards to distances of 100 meters.
A Radial direct box works double duty as an acoustic guitar
output to the PA or as a direct feed for recording. With
the JX44, you can record a ‘clean guitar track’
and use the built-in Radial X-Amp in post production to
re-amplify the signal to multiple amplifiers and pedals
at the same time. With a JX44 in your rig, fixing a bum
note for the live release is now possible.
Up to six guitar amplifiers may
be used at once. Outputs 1 and 2 are single while outputs
3 and 4 are doubled-up to drive stereo amp setups or multiple
stacks. All outputs are transformer isolated to eliminate
hum and buzz from ground loops. These also feature 180º
polarity reverse switches to ensure all amps are in absolute
phase. Amps can be selected from the front panel or from
the JR5 remote. This five function footswitch is equipped
with internal memory that let’s you store 4 amp scenes
and recall them with single foot action. A second JR5 can
also be used to activate or mute guitars. To further enhance
stage functionality, the JX44 sports a separately buffered
tuner output with mute switch for silent tuning. Signals
can be muted using the front panel switch, a latching footswitch,
or with the JR5 remote. You get complete control right where
you want it.
Should ever a problem occur, a front
panel ‘panic’ button hardwires input-A to output-1
for direct-to-amp connection. This will even work if the
JX44 power goes down. With a Radial JX44 in your rig, the
show ill go on!
Designed for ultimate stage functionality
and pristine studio fidelity, the Radial JX44 is a powerful
device that delivers tremendous signal routing capabilities
in an easy to use and great sounding package!
