Reamp JCR

Studio Reamper

The Reamp® JCR is a high-performance passive Reamper that gives you the ability to take a pre-recorded track and send it through a guitar amp or pedal chain, allowing you to explore new sonic textures and experiment with microphone placement, amp and pedal settings without limit. The JCR utilizes the original Reamp circuit designed by recording industry legend John Cuniberti, providing exceptional audio quality that preserves every detail of the original recording while optimizing it to feed amplifiers and effects pedals.

The Radial Reamp JCR is the latest version of the original Reamp that was designed and patented by John Cuniberti. It features a 100% passive design with John's original custom wound 'Made in the USA' transformer and circuit. The latest Radial version features separate XLR and ¼" TRS input connectors, variable output level plus a three-position filter that lets you tame excessive highs, warm up the lows or simply bypass if you want to revert to the original circuit. An on-board mute function has also been added to allow you to shut off the signal going to the amps when making adjustments or moving mics around the studio.

JCR Applications

Reamping Part 1

Reamping usually starts by recording a dry clean track. The Radial J48 DI is an excellent choice for this as it presents the guitar with an ideal impedance for natural tone.

Reamping Part 2

Once the dry track is recorded, send it back to the Reamp JCR where it can feed a guitar or bass amplifier. Mic the amp to capture the new tone. Move the mic around to find the sweet spot.

Adding Pedals

Take things one step further by introducing effects pedals into the mix. Try a wah pedal on kick drum; envelope on snare; distortion on a vocal track. Let your imagination run free!

Specifications

The Reamp JCR is the latest rendition of the original Reamp V.2 that was developed by John Cuniberti. Careful attention has been paid to ensure the sound and performance is faithful to the original. The heart of the beast is a custom made audio transformer that unbalances the signal and shifts the impedance. Key specifications are, of course, the frequency curve and phase response. For reference, we have also provided a comparison between the original Reamp and the new Radial JCR.
