Radial SGI TX/RX Instrument Line Driver System for Guitars
The Radial Engineering SGI is a high-performance line driver system designed to transmit unbalanced guitar and bass signals over extended distances without compromising tone or introducing noise. This innovative solution is ideal for both studio and stage applications, allowing musicians to maintain their instrument's natural sound even when connecting to amplifiers located up to 300 feet away. By utilizing standard balanced XLR microphone cables, the SGI ensures signal integrity across long runs, making it an indispensable tool for modern guitarists and bassists.
In the studio environment, the SGI enables guitarists to perform in the control room while their amplifiers are situated in isolated rooms or booths. This setup allows musicians to monitor their sound directly through studio monitors, providing an accurate representation of the recorded tone. The SGI system comprises two modules: the SGI-TX transmitter and the SGI-RX receiver. The SGI-TX connects directly to the instrument, converting the unbalanced signal to a balanced one for transmission via XLR cable. Upon reaching the SGI-RX, the signal is reverted to its original unbalanced form, ready to feed into the amplifier without any loss of quality.
On stage, the SGI proves invaluable for large venues where long cable runs can degrade signal quality and introduce noise due to cable capacitance and electromagnetic interference. By balancing the signal, the SGI effectively eliminates these issues, ensuring a pristine sound reaches the amplifier. This capability is particularly beneficial when using off-stage isolation cabinets, under-stage amplifiers, or remote 'quiet' rooms. Additionally, the SGI's robust construction and reliable performance make it a trusted choice for touring professionals who demand consistent sound quality in various performance settings.
