Behringer FBQ1000 Feedback Destroyer Demo

Full Description

Intelligent

Feedback is your enemy. And sometimes, it can be hard to stop it in its tracks. But not with the Behringer FBQ1000. Utilising an astounding response time of less than 0.2 seconds, this ultra-fast feedback destroyer detects up to twelve feedback frequencies on each of its channels automatically.

Once troublesome frequencies have been detected, the device is able to set a selection of extremely-narrow notch filters spanning up to 1/60th of an octave that enable the device to eliminate that dreaded feedback. Thanks to the narrow nature of each filter, the rest of your signal remains untouched, keeping your sound feedback-free and full of life.

Intuitive

Getting your sound right in a live setting can feel frustrating. There are endless hurdles to overcome, and the last thing you need it to have to keep adjusting parameters every few seconds to keep everything running smoothly. But when it comes to the destruction of detrimental feedback, the FBQ1000 takes that pain away.

By default, this versatile device boasts a 'Set-and-forget' setting that means you can be up and running in seconds. But that's not all. A handy Auto mode continuously monitors your mix. Programmed filters are automatically reset, instantly eliminating feedback the second that it's detected. And if you'd prefer to take control yourself, Manual mode lets you program a maximum of 24 fully-parametric filters for optimising your sound. Each filter lets you adjust the Frequency, Bandwidth, and Gain for maximum performance.

Built for the road

If you've spent more than a few minutes at any kind of event, you know how demanding they can be. Throw in the journeys to and from said event, and that can start to take a real toll on your equipment. That's why the FBQ1000 was built to last. With a rack-mountable design, you can easily install your feedback destroyer into a rugged hard case for worry-free transportation and operation. Plus, the FBQ1000's rugged metal chassis will keep the precious internal components safe should the worst ever happen. And with Behringer's 3-year warranty program, you can destroy feedback with complete confidence for years to come.
