Description: Radial Engineering SGI-44 Studio Guitar Interface NEW! AUTHORIZED DEALER!!! The SGI-44 Studio Guitar Interface from Radial Engineering is a studio-quality bi-directional effects router that is designed to take the output from a wireless receiver and run the guitar signal to the pedalboard and back. Two SGI-44s are used with one positioned at the wireless end, and the other at the pedalboard. Connection is made using standard XLR cables. The first unit converts the unbalanced high-impedance guitar signal to a balanced low-impedance signal and the second reverses the process, thus allowing distances of more than 300’ (100m) without noise. For ensuring optimal signal quality, the SGI-44 employs 100% hand-inserted discrete parts with Jensen isolation transformers to make up the class-A circuit. Although less efficient than the chip-based AB circuits, single-ended class-A circuits are preferred by audiophiles due to the lack of zero-cross distortion. This unit delivers transparency and realism. To further improve the feel, it is equipped with Drag Control load correction. This allows you to dial in an optimal load as if connected to a tube guitar amp using a standard guitar cable. For added versatility, this unit comes equipped with a buffered tuner out for quick between song adjustments or can be used to split the guitar signal to a second signal chain if need be.Made in Canada using 14-gauge steel, this unit is tough. An innovative I-beam internal frame protects the sensitive circuit board from outside stress, which could torque the solder points and cause premature failure. Radial's innovative book-end construction creates recessed zones at each end that protect connectors, switches, and controls from harm.This unit makes it easy to route guitar signals around a stage, in the studio, or in a large venue while delivering impressive signal quality.Bi-directional long-distance 'send and receive' effects routerDrive guitar & bass signals beyond 300' (100m)Separately buffered 1/4" high-impedance tuner outputDrag control lets you adjust the load on passive pickups for a more realistic tone100% discrete class-A circuitry for optimal signal transfer and low distortionWorks with the Radial JX44 Air Control guitar and amp selectorDurable switches with metal outer casing that are rated to 20,000 cycles for added durabilityJensen high-performance transformer for improved signal handling and greater immunity to noiseDouble-sided mil-spec circuit board for greater durability and full ground plane to reduce radio frequency interferenceGlass-filled nylon XLR connector with extra-large nickel-silver pin contactsBook-end design creates a protective zone around the connectors and switches for added durabilityCable clamp prevents accidental power disconnectionNo-slip pad provides electrical and mechanical isolation, and keeps the unit from sliding aroundIn the BoxRadial Engineering SGI-44 Studio Guitar InterfaceLimited 3-Year Warranty on Parts & Labor Audio PerformanceCircuit TypeActive 100% discrete class-A with transformer isolationFrequency Response20 Hz to 20 kHz (-2 dB)Signal-to-Noise Ratio100 dB (0 dBu input)Dynamic Range105 dBNoise Floor-100 dBuMaximum Input+2 dBuTotal Harmonic Distortion0.005% @ 1kIntermodulation Distortion0.02% @ 1kInput ImpedanceVariable from 10 kΩ to 1 MΩOutput Impedance218 Ω (1/4" unbalanced output)280 Ω (TX balanced output)Input / OutputInstrument Input1/4" unbalancedTunerOutput: 1/4" unbalancedTransmitter Output PortsBalanced XLR output (Studio Guitar Interface)Receiver Input PortsBalanced XLR input (Studio Guitar Interface) with ground liftDrag ControlVariable input impedance controlConfigurationXLR: AES standard (pin-2 hot)GeneralPower15 VDC/400 mA adapter includedConstruction14-gauge steel chassis & outer shell with baked enamel finishOperating ConditionsFor use in dry locations only between 41 to 104°F (5 and 40°C)Dimensions (L x W x H)5.00 x 4.25 x 1.92" (12.70 x 10.79 x 4.87 cm)Weight3.0 lb (1.4 kg)
