RADIAL presents 4-Play

4-Play, a unique direct box designed to manage more tools on stage.
4-Play It is characterized by a standard ¼ "input for acoustic guitar, mandolin, violin or low (the device is compatible with many other instruments). There is a foot switch that activates the Mute function by silencing the unit when you connect or disconnect an instrument. The signal is then directed to a pedal selector that selects the four outputs in sequence allowing each tool to have its own dedicated channel on the PA.

Simply put in mute 4-PlayConnect the desired tool and use the pedal to select the output. High visibility LED indicators provide clear feedback on the active output.
Explains Mike Bauer, of the Radial Tech Team:

"When you are on a crowded stage, switch from one tool to another can generate different problems. When you share the same Direct Box, the transition from an acoustic guitar to a mandolin requires the intervention of the monitor and foh technicians to silence the active channel of the mixer and avoid the characteristic transient and shots that occur by connecting a tool.
Then you need to change the equalization and adjust the level to adapt it to each tool. The alternative is the use of separate boxes, with relative tangle of wires connected to each instrument. Any stage technician will advise you to use a single cable and manually the transition between the instruments without resorting to a simultaneous action of audio technicians.

4-Play The artist can silence the instrument on the stage avoiding the intervention of the monitor and foh technicians at each change. Since each instrument is connected to a dedicated channel, the signal level, the EQ and the effects can be predetermined and optimized without having to make radical changes to each change of instrument. With many artists on stage, 4-Play is the right solution ".

4-Play It has four active balanced outputs, each of which equipped with a ground lift switch to eliminate disturbances and buzzers caused by the mass loops and polarity reversal switch to 180 degrees, useful for alignment between the Stage amplifier and PA or to eliminate hot-Acoustic spots on stage that can create feedback.
To ensure exceptional durability and isolation, all connectors are made of nylon fiber and have stainless contacts in nickel-silver. Two "Set & Forget" switches allow the user to limit the two-three or four active pedal selection cycle. There is also a dedicated Tuner output always active for instant adjustments.
The chassis of 4-Play In steel gauge 14 ensures maximum rigidity and greater immunity to magnetic fields. The unit can be powered with a 9 volt standard boss type adapter (not included); There is a security cableway that avoids accidental detachment of the cable.
