RADIAL ENGINEERING - J48

La DI Radial J48 est tout simplement la meilleure DI active alimentable via phantom au monde. Elle a été optimisée pour pouvoir supporter des signaux de forte amplitude sans saturer en utilisant seulement les 5mA de courant typiquement disponibles sur une alimentation phantom. La J48 possède une alimentation digitale à découpage qui permet d'alimenter les circuits en 9 Volts !  La plupart des guitares et basses actives vont fournir des signaux de 7 Volts d'amplitude à volume maximal. Comme la plupart des DI sont capables d'encaisser environ 3 Volts, elles saturent.  Comme la J48 a plus de headroom, elle n'a pas ce problème de saturation. Ce headroom supplémentaire permet aussi de réduire les distorsions harmonique, de phase et d'intermodulation. La J48 adressant tous les problèmes typiques que les autres DI du marché rencontrent, le résultat est immédiat : ça sonne ! 

Caractéristiques remarquables :

• Headroom (Alimentation interne en 9 Volts)
• Fonctionne sans pile (via alimentation phantom)
• Entrée haute impédance
• Switch merge permet de sommer un signal stéréo en mono
• Filtre passe haut, PAD (-15dB) et switch de polarité 

Applications :

• Idéal pour guitares acoustiques et basses
• Superbe pour les modules de sons, claviers et modules de drums
• Adapté aussi bien au travail en studio que sur scène

RADIAL ENGINEERING - J48

 The Radial J48 has been designed from the ground up to deliver the most natural tone. As a direct box manufacturer, we do not believe it is our task to alter the sound of your prized '1962 Fender Jazz Bass', but retain and transfer the true character of the instrument to the mixing console without adding distortion or introducing artifact. This design philosophy has gained a tremendous following from many of the world's most demanding musicians.

Using only 48V phantom power, the Radial J48 is an active direct box that produces an exceptionally linear response that extends from 20Hz up to well above 40kHz. Low distortion of all types is achieved via a unique digital switching power supply that raises the internal operating rail voltage for added headroom and improved signal handling. The results are truly amazing. The J48 delivers an ideal even-order harmonic cascade and a sonic performance that outperforms DIs costing several hundreds more.

And like all Radial products, the J48 is both feature-rich for studio and made tough to handle the road. This includes a -15dB input pad to tame extra loud signals, 180º polarity reverse for feedback control on stage and a ground lift to help reduce hum & buzz caused by ground loops. Special features include a merge function that elegantly mixes left-right signals to mono without phase cancellation. To minimize resonant feedback with acoustic instruments, the J48 is also equipped with an 80Hz high-pass filter (low-cut). When engaged, this also increases headroom by eliminating unneeded bass frequencies.

Radial's innovative book-end design protects switches and connectors from abuse while the internal I-beam construction eliminates stress on the PC board. This serves to reduce solder joints from going 'cold' and delivers trouble-free performance for years. A full-bottom no-slip pad provides mechanical and electrical isolation while providing plenty of 'stay-put' for rockin' stages!

The Radial J48 is used by artists as diverse as acoustic guitarist Tommy Emmanuel; super-star engineer Joe Chiccarelli; and one of the most successful bands of all time Fleetwood Mac. The Radial J48… the world's finest 48V phantom powered active direct box.

• Ultra low distortion of all types
• Exceptional headroom & dynamic range
• Retains instrument's natural sound
• Powered by 48V phantom
