Connecting your guitar effects directly to a mixing desk often has mixed results: its twanging and buzzing sounds are part of it. To avoid this poor result, the JDX Direct Drive cleverly combines a direct box with a guitar amplifier simulator.
The direct box of the guitarist.
If you're tired of carrying your amplifier in addition to your effects pedals and your guitar at each of your rehearsals or for the concert of the evening, do not go any further: the JDX Direct Drive could well change your life . This small vermilion box is a powerful guitar amplifier emulator combined with a direct box that simulates the sound and the rendering of a real amplifier, unlike the classic direct boxes that simply transfer the sound of the pedals to the sound system. Thanks to this feature, you can do your rehearsal or your concert without taking an amp, if a sono is available on site, of course!
Whole stacks in your pocket.
To use the JDX Direct Drive, nothing more simple: connect your guitar and effects pedals to the jack intended for this purpose, connect the JDX via an XLR cable or jack to the mixer or the sound system , make your settings, and that's it! The JDX features 3 emulations of amplifiers recognizable among a thousand: an open-back combo with crystal clear sound, an amp head and cabinet 4 x 12 "of a famous English brand, and an emulation of the circuit JDX developed by Radial with a cabinet 4x12 "also. Add to that a presence control for more brilliance, and you're ready to go on stage!
Robust and complete.
Like all products developed by Radial, the JDX Direct Drive has benefited from the brand's own manufacturing quality, synonymous with robustness and flawless reliability. Its shielded chassis effectively protects military-grade circuits against external stress, and effectively isolates components from electromagnetic interference. Very concerned about the problems frequently encountered on stage by the artists, Radial has also integrated a mass switch and a phase inverter.
Robust and complete, the JDX Direct Drive fits directly on your pedalboard and you save the transport of heavy amplifiers both for rehearsals and on stage.
Tired of carrying your bulky and precious tube amp to rehearsals? If you are looking for a solution that allows you to connect your entire pedal board directly in a PA system, a mixer or recorder while having a wide range of sound, the JDX Direct Drive is for you!
Cleverly combining in one box the famous JDX amp simulator, which faithfully reproduces the sound of a 4x12 Marshall ™ stack recorded via a Shure SM57 ™, with a DI of very high quality, the JDX Direct Drive is the pedal that you need for rehearsals and concerts where an amp is too important a concern.
Very complete and versatile, it offers three distinct types of sounds: a sound of 4x12 recorded by a microphone, a stack sound with trunk, and a brighter and brighter combo sound. It also has a presence switch, offering a brighter and crystal clear sound!
