Ultimate Keyboard Control
The Radial KL-8 is a rackmount keyboard mixing station that is professionally designed for providing a complete control over a professional keyboard setup, both in the recording studio and on-stage.
Put yourself in control of the mix
The Radial KL-8 is a powerful mixing station that is created with keyboard pros in mind, with a lot of number of features that designed specifically to streamline and for enhancing any keyboard setup. The user is given the capability to connect up to four keyboards in stereo or mono, with aux sends, level controls, and LED indicators for each. A stereo aux send/receive is also included and available for feeding rackmount reverbs and delays and effects pedals, or it can be used to the fifth keyboard as an additional input. MIDI and USB connections is making it easy for controlling a laptop soft-synth, that utilizes a high quality 24bit/192kHz digital audio converters. The Radial KL-8 also comes with multiple output options, with monitor outputs for a set of speakers on stage, dual headphone outputs for local monitoring and testing, and transformer-isolated XLR main outputs to feed the PA.
Redundant USB inputs
When you can't afford to have a break in the performance due to laptop failure, the KL-8 allows you to set up redundant laptop systems and seamlessly transition from one to another. A secondary USB input on the KL-8 allows you to keep your backup laptop at the ready - when failure occurs simply hit the USB select switch on the front panel or use the optional JR-1L remote footswitch to instantly switch to the backup system.
Silent cueing and monitoring via headphones
A built in headphone amp and dual 1/4" TRS outputs give you the option to practice and record silently, or cue up individual inputs on stage without feeding signal out to the audience over the PA system. Each input channel on the KL-8 is accompanied by a Cue switch that will remove that input from the main and monitor outputs and reroute it directly to the headphones, so you can easily adjust patch settings and test playback over USB without affecting the performance.
