1. INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the Radial JD6 multi-channel direct box. The JD6 is a world-class 19" rack-
mountable DI system that has been optimized for use with keyboards, audio-visual equipment, computer sound
cards, samplers, electronic drums and instruments of all types.
As there are many innovative features in the JD6, we recommend that you take a few minutes to read through this
manual in order to familiarize yourself with the design and features that are built in. Most importantly, the Radial
JD6 features internal grounding options that will be of particular interest to engineers when integrating the JD6
with keyboard racks and audio-visual systems.
