MasterSounds and Union Audio Join Forces; Launch Rotary DJ Mixer: Radius 2
Audio accessories company, MasterSounds has announced the release of the Radius 2, a hand built analogue
rotary DJ mixer.
Master Sounds founder Ryan Shaw has teamed up with Union Audio to create a Rotary mixer with a prime
emphasis on quality of sound.
The Radius 2 offers an efficient clean, open and dynamic sound on both LINE and RIAA inputs as well as
great usability. The mixer also features easy-reading VU meters, a responsive Master EQ/Isolator, a
smooth natural sounding hi-pass filter on each channel and an AUX send/Return system for easy integration
of external effects.
The new compact and highly portable mixer has been developed by Union Audio at their Cornwall based
workshops over the last twelve months. Andy Rigby-Jones who was a former head of design for Allen &
Heath Xone DJ mixer range; has designed, built and tested the analogue electronics, while Ryan’s
family owned metalworking factory manufactured the mixers outer casing.
Each mixer is hand built, tested and shipped by Andy himself, ensuring the ultimate in quality,
reliability and performance.
Andy Rigby-Jones said, “The heart of the Radius 2 is a carefully designed audio signal path, marrying
classic analogue circuitry to the latest high performance components and design techniques, all of
which contribute to the superb transparency of the mixer. The main focus was on accuracy of audio
reproduction, with minimal distortion, low noise floor and high headroom, aided by only using
components of fine quality”.
