RJM Music RG-16 Audio Loop Switcher

Streamline Your Complex Guitar Rig!

If you're a high-tech guitarist, the RG-16 from RJM Music is the control unit you've been dreaming of. The RG-16 acts as a central hub for all of your effects and your amp's switchable options, allowing you to trigger fully isolated effects loops, serial effects loops, amp channels, and other amp options such as reverb and dampening all from a single, central MIDI controller. The RG-16 both simplifies your setup and adds incredible power, by allowing you to combine functions into single MIDI controlled trigger. If you've ever wanted to kick in an effects loop while switching to your amp's dirty channel and throwing on the attenuator — all at once — then you need an RG-16!

Everything on the RG-16 is designed to make your life easier. You can easily program all of its functions from the simple button and LED front panel controls. The only thing you need to connect your MIDI controller to the RG-16 is a single MIDI cable, and you get access to all of its functions. Once you're set up, a singe MIDI trigger can turn on any of your effects loops, switch channels on your amp, or any combination of events.

The RG-16 provides you with eight total audio loops and eight function switches. Four of the audio loops are grouped together in series, and the other four are completely independent from the rest, giving you a ton of sonic possibilities. Each of these loops can be assigned to program change and continuous controller information. To keep your signal clean, the RG-16 uses only high-quality relays and features electrically isolated jacks wherever possible. It also give you an excellent audio buffer that you can place anywhere in the audio path.

The RG-16 uses a pair of 8-pin DIN outputs to control the switches on your amplifiers. You get a total of 16 switch controls on two separate output jacks, which allows you to easily control the functions of two different amplifiers. RJM Music offers a breakout cable to four standard 1/4" TRS connectors for use with most footswitch inputs on most amplifiers, as well as a wide variety of cables (also available at Sweetwater) to communicate with the manufacturer-specific input configurations of various amplifiers.

Note: To make sure you get the right cables for your amplifiers, we highly recommend calling your Sweetwater Sales Engineer at (800) 222-4700
