Revolutionize Your Guitar Rig

Need to drive multiple amps? Sweetwater has a device you should know about. The Radial Shotgun guitar-level signal buffer fits neatly on your pedalboard and simultaneously drives up to four guitar amps. The Shotgun has two inputs, with a switching jack on Input 2 that, when connected, changes the signal distribution configuration between 1 x 4 mono and 2 x 2 stereo. Radial spec'd the Shotgun with its unique Consistent Load Compensation (CLC) circuit, which maintains stable input impedance to protect the sonic character of your signal, no matter if you use one or two sources.

A world of versatility - without noise

Under the hood, the Radial Shotgun is fitted with a low-noise buffer circuit that drives your tone up to 50' with no noise. What's more, iso transformers across outputs 2, 3, and 4 help eradicate the irksome hums and buzzes due to ground loops in a multi-amp setup. When you're using it in 1 x 4 mono mode, the Shotgun easily drives multiple amps, direct box outputs, and modeling amplifiers simultaneously. Switch to 2 x 2 stereo mode, and you can connect, say, a stereo chorus output to the Shotgun and noiselessly drive two or four amplifiers in stereo and in phase.

Radial Shotgun Features:
  • Guitar-level signal buffer drives up to 4 guitar amps
  • Select between 1 x 4 mono and 2 x 2 stereo configuration
  • Isolated outputs eliminate hum and buzz due to ground loops
  • Buffered outputs easily drive extra-long cable runs
  • Radial's Consistent Load Compensation (CLC) circuit
  • Powered via standard 9-volt supply or multi-pedal power brick
Revolutionize your guitar rig with the Radial Shotgun!

Yup! It’s Great!

I use this to send my dry signal to a modeler, a Marshall combo, a victory head and a instrument preamp for tracking dry to the daw. They are all getting clean and perfect signals thanks to this box! Love it! Would be nice if it came with a PSU like my switchbone. But it just takes a 9vDC neg tip which is kinda the standard for pedals so it was easy enough to track down another PSU for this. The location of the dc power input jack is not ideal for me but I made it work. I WISH, that it had the buffer adjustment like the switchbone aby/c box for when I use active pickups since they are their own buffer. I also wish it had the drag control. I have come to like that feature on the JX.2 switchbone, but this does 4 mono outs or two stereo and I love it. I mounted it on the underside of my desk. Works great!

Nice.

It does its job, and does it very well. Radial engineering is top notch.
Rated 5/5

Nice Solution

With this pedal I am able to compare up to four amps at once and also hear which amps are lacking certain frequencies. Running amps together that are voiced different gives a huge tone.

Radial shotgun

The service and shipping were fast and accurate as always.
Using multiple amps is not a new concept, but I wanted more options and flexibility than I could get with an aby switch. So my quest for a switcher began.
The voodoo product was perfect but discontinued so I looked at the Radial shotgun for 800. A bit more than I wanted to spend.
I bought a really quality, built for the road 6 amp switcher from Kendricks amps. Very happy but its really not intended for on the fly switching.
Then Sweetwater sent me notice of the radial shotgun... I jumped on it because:
The price was absolutely irresistible
It is buffered
It has ground switching/lift
And 2 instrument inputs.
With 1 guitar connected all 4 amps are supplied by that input. When the 2nd guitar is connected the shotgun automatically goes to stereo with amp 1&2 from input 1 and amp 3&4 from input 2.
Perfect for 6L6 on one input and EL 83 on the other. Or all together. Or any combination
Lots of tone options there.
I normally play my strat or semi hollow through the "American" 6L6 side. Amp 1 using 6L6 into a cab of 12in eminence red white blue. Amp 2 using 6L6 into a cab of 10in eminence cannibis rex. Or play my Tele or Ric through the "British" EL 83 side.Amp 3 using EL 83 into cab with 12in eminence legend gb128 and amp 4 into amp using EL 83 into a cab of 10 in eminence ramrod.
Or any guitar in any combination.
Like I say: lots of tone options.
You must try multiple amps. Killer.
The Radial Shotgun is perfect for this, well made, and noiseless. I recommend it highly.
