7 E 1. INTRODUCTION With the FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO you have purchased a highly useful device for the control of sound reinforcement systems, which will enable you to focus your attention on what is essential: your music. The fully featured FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO not only suppresses feedback but also incorporates a wealth of additional functions in[...]

8 Electrostatic charges might affect the operation of the FEEDBACKDESTROYERPRO! For further information on correct installation see chapter 5 Installation. As a standard the audio inputs and outputs on the BEHRINGER FEEDBACKDESTROYERPRO are fully balanced. If possible, connect the unit to other devices in a balanced configuration [...]

9 E On start-up; all active filters (AU/SI) are indicated by flashing LEDs. When feedback has been detected and dealt with, the LED stops flashing. When all filters are set the oldest automatic filter starts flashing, indicating that it will be the next filter to handle new feedback. Parametric filters are also indicated by a non-flashing LED. In S[...]

10 Fig. 1.3: Function keys and jog wheel 5 With the JOG WHEEL , a continuous rotary control, you can freely edit the selected parameters. Turn the wheel clockwise to increase the values, or counterclockwise to reduce them. + As long as none of the edit functions to the right of the jog wheel has been selected, you can use the wheel to select a prog[...]

11 E + Press and keep the keys FILTERSELECT and STORE before powering up the FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO. Then switch on the FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO and keep the two keys pressed for about one second. The program numbers are counted up and reset to their original default settings. 16 Use the POWER switch to switch the FEEDBACKDESTROYERPRO on or [...]

12 2.1 Activating/deactivating the filters In OF mode, the corresponding filter is deactivated and can be activated by selecting one of the modes described below. 2.2 Manual filters / parametric equalizer The FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO allows you to freely process any music signals. To raise or lower specific frequencies in level, you can directl[...]

13 E only after about one second, which is indicated by a dot in the lower right corner of the display. After loading the data, the FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO enables the preset and the dot disappears. This brief interruption avoids the direct activation of every preset, as you scroll through the preset list with the jog wheel. Thus, the FEEDBACK DESTR[...]

14 2.4.4 Storing programs Use the STORE key to store the program. Basically, all parameter changes in Parametric EQ mode can be saved. Filters working in Single-Shot or Auto mode will adjust and store the required parameters automatically. Example: s You recall a program for editing. Then you edit the preset as desired using the function keys and t[...]

15 E via MIDI. Accordingly, the value 1 enables MIDI controller #18 so that you can modify or replace presets with a remote MIDI device or a sequencer. In this case the actual settings will be stored directly to the location that corresponds to the controller value. + Attention! Since the store enable mode allows you to access memory lo[...]

16 3.1 Level setting Take care to set levels properly on the FEEDBACKDESTROYERPRO! Low levels deteriorate the dynamics of the music signal, which results in a poor, weak and noisy sound. On the other hand, excess levels overdriving the converters in the FEEDBACKDESTROYERPRO should also be avoided. Digital distortion is (unlike its analo[...]

17 E situations. Before applying the FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO, it is therefore advisable to remove the condition causing the feedback problems. For example, try different microphone positions! Use the FEEDBACKDESTROYERPRO in the monitor path and in single channels with critical signals. If there is no other way to eliminate feedback, you can in[...]

19 E 3.7 Special remarks 3.7 .1 Digital overflow When using the FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO as a parametric equalizer (Parametric EQ mode) and applying extreme attenuation values in the low end range of the frequency spectrum (below 50Hz), you should perhaps set several filters to process the same frequency. Depending on the amount of attenuation app[...]

20 The range of sound pressure levels or the dynamic range of human hearing encompasses a factor of 10,000,000. This enormous range of values is difficult to handle and additionally does not represent the subjective perception of sound, since human hearing tends to use a logarithmic curve. When an increase in loudness by the factor two is perceived[...]

22 Microphone Mixing Console Power Amp Speaker Box Fig. 4.3: T ypical feedback loop Basically, any microphone signal passing through an amplifier is liable to generate feedback. Unfortunately, the feedback frequencies of P.A. systems differ, and even one single system can have varying feedback frequencies, as these depend largely on the room acoust[...]

24 s Quick filter settings can be realized by using standard ISO values for the allocation of frequency bands. Subsequently, you can fine tune the frequency of your choice. 4. 5 Digital audio processing In order to convert an analog signal - e.g. music - into a series of digital words, a so-called Analogue to Digital Converter or ADC is used.[...]
