padRadial Engineering Preamps, DIs And Effects

As used by Dream Guitar's own Al Petteway and Paul Heumiller!

"We choose the Radial PZ-Pre first and foremost because of it's clear natural acoustic tone. Plus it has all the useful featured a pro needs, two instrument inputs with separate levels, mute, a boost switch for solos, notch filter, pre and post XLR outputs as well as tuner out and effects loop. It makes it very easy to get a great sound and balance two instruments. The boost feature is great for when you need to stand out. But it's the transparent sound we love. Have a great instrument, let it be heard in all it's glory!" - Paul Heumiller

Radial Engineering PZ PreRadial Engineering PZ Prepad- Combination PZ booster and preamp

- Two inputs: two instruments or blend/mix

- Parametric EQ and notch filter

- Four outputs: amp, tuner and two DI outs

- Works with any instrument!

The Radial Tonebone PZ-Pre™ is the most powerful acoustic preamplifier ever to be put inside a pedal. And when we say acoustic, we do not just mean acoustic guitar; we mean ANY acoustic instrument including banjo, violin, cello, mandolin, contrabass, bouzouki or lute. The magic of the PZ-Pre lies in the combination of high performance 100% discrete class-A piezo boosters, an ultra-quiet preamp circuitry that will adapt to any pickup system and a host of connectivity options that put you in control of any situation.

The PZ-Pre features two inputs for quick instrument changes on stage, a powerful yet warm sounding semi-parametric EQ to tailor your sound, plus a host of feedback eliminating controls including: a dual-Q notch filter to surgically remove feedback points, a high-pass filter to cut low frequency resonance and a phase reverse switch to optimize the acoustic environment on stage. The PZ-Pre is equipped with three separate outputs: a ¼" on-stage instrument amp out, a balanced XLR pre-EQ direct out for the house mix and a balanced XLR post EQ out for stage monitors or in-ears. A dedicated tuner out with mute switch is provided for quiet on-stage tuning as well as an effects loop and power booster to add sizzle and dynamics to the performance!

Compact and easy to use, the Radial PZ-Pre packs in all of the features you need to take your acoustic instrument from home to studio and club to concert.

Radial Engineering J48 Active Direct BoxRadial Engineering J48 Active Direct Boxpad- Active 48-Volt phantom powered direct box

- Minimal power draw with high rail voltage

- Will not choke when driven hard

- Low inter-modulation distortion



The Radial J48 is a great sounding active direct box that has been optimized to produce maximum headroom while working within the limited current available from standard 48V phantom power. By employing a unique switching power supply, the J48 is capable of peak transients to 9 volts without choking. The result is lower harmonic distortion, half the inter-modulation distortion and significantly improved dynamics over other DIs.

Features include a -15dB pad, 180º polarity reverse, a unique merge function to mix two signals to mono, an 80Hz high-pass rumble filter, and ground lift. Like all Radial products, the J48 is built to handle the abuse on the road and features a unique welded I-beam construction for years of trouble free performance.

Radial Engineering JDI Passive Direct BoxRadial Engineering JDI Passive Direct Boxpad- Jensen Transformer equipped passive DI

- 100% isolation eliminates ground loops

- Virtually zero phase & harmonic distortion

- Exceptional signal handling

- High common mode noise rejection

The Radial JDI is considered by many to be the world’s finest direct box. It is a passive DI that employs a Jensen isolation transformer for optimum audio performance offering outstanding linearity at all frequencies, combined with extraordinary level handling without introducing distortion. Being completely passive, the plug & play JDI does not require any powering and has the unique advantage of eliminating 60-cycle ground loops. This makes the JDI a definite favorite with informed audio engineers. The JDI is great for guitars, bass, and keyboards and is particularly adept with high-output, broadband instruments such as active instruments and digital keyboards. The JDI may be rack-mounted using the J-Rak and is also available in a stereo (2-channel) version called the JDI Duplex and the 6-channel rack-mountable JD6.
