Behringer FBQ2496 Feedback Destroyer

Demo of the setup of the Behringer FBQ2496 Feedback Destroyer. At the beginnign of the video there are no single shot filter lit up. I place the unit into learn mode and keep increasing the volume of the PA to induce feedback. You can hear the FBQ2496 working to catch the feedback an setup single shot filters. Later I walk around with a wireless mic to setup a few dynamic filters.

i use a  lot of gain on my amp for my guitar. and its that fuzzy feedback that i get from the high gain. will that take it away?

thanks

No. It's designed mostly for applications that use microphones.

Thanks for the video,

I know very little about a "few db's" but that's quite a bit in sound pressure isn't it ?

I have a powered 15" that I use as my pa, could I expect to turn the volume up from where it starts to squal now at about 8 oclock up to 10 oclock or?

Just looking for the broad stroke, just asking if I can possibly go from 2 to 4 or 5 on a 1 to 10 volume knob using a decent fb destroyer.

Thanks !

It really depends on the power amp but I would say maybe something like 8 oclock up to 9 oclock. The better way to control feedback is by basic speaker and microphone placement and using quality mics that are more resistant to feedback.

Thanks for putting this up. I have a question though. I have an acoustic-eletric guitar, and i was looking at a Sabine FBX-SOLO SL820 Digital Feedback Eliminator. Im getting kinda desperate here because theres no way i can play anywhere with this feedback issue. Would you recomend this product? Or would your recomend something else?

Thanks for reading.

In think in general the Sabine units are better. I don't remember the exact reason but I sold this Behringer unit and bought a Sabine.

Don't expect miracles from a feedback eliminator. It can give you a few DB of extra headroom but it won't eliminate feedback.

@GLP68 i do believe they make one for guitar search guitar center or call them and ask

[AxelNotHuman]

Is the behringer fbq2496 good for vocal feedback?

I want a anti-Feedback processor for live shows.

That actually didn't show anything. You would have to have a view meter in the back of the room attached to a MIC to see the volume improvement was working. Saying chk chk and looking at a light shows the viewer nothing my friend. Go to Radio shack, pic up a SPL meter, video the level from the back of the room as you UP the master whilst the unit is cutting out feedback. SHOW the imprved level via the meter. Then return the SPL to R.S. and say you bought the wrong thing LOL YOU should buy it!

yeah alesis quadraverb!!!....awesome 90s machine

[jonx2001]

@coitussnakes You should use a gate for that.

@GLP68 ...You need a Direct Box so it can eliminate the static humming sound due to lack of ground! They have a Ground Lift switch! It isolates grounding circuit for hum or buzz elimination

interesting vid ta for posting. it would be interesting to hear it in a gig setting, to figure out if it cuts feedback frequencies just enough or completely kills them. im guessing the mix might start sounding a bit weird if that's the case.
