Experience with Feedback Suppressors
Can someone school me on feedback suppressors (e.g., Harman dbx http://dbxpro.com/en-US/product_fami...ck-suppression? Do they work well? Negative impact on overall sound quality? Thanks.

I use a number of Sabine 2400's in specific applications. I find they work very well when connected between the amp and mixer but not as well when used as a channel insert. I cannot speak to other brands other than Behringer which were useless.

DBX Gorack
Picked up one of these for $29 from Sweetwater. Great rig. Has 11 bands of auto feedback suppression along with variable compression, 16 pre set eq curves and a mute switch. I use it in an acoustic duo between my small mixer and powered EV tops. Works very well and only 2 pounds. I throw it in my mixer bag. You literally can point the mic directly at the speaker and no feedback.

I'm thinking this must be the Dbx GoRack, which came up in another thread. Hope so, cuz I just ordered one.

Yep that's the one. I just used one of mine in my live stage monitor system, which is a Carvin HD900 power amp into Carvin 10" wedges, running off the sub outputs from a Behringer X2222.
I was running a bit late and had some complaints from the nice folks at the Elks CLub when I "pinked" the mains with the DriverackPA unit in the FOH (I wonder what they would have said if I had to ring out the room in more conventional fashion!). I have another one of those for the monitors, but instead I just stuck the little GoRack in there, set it up with it's very simple menu and played our New Years Eve gig (4 sets) with it that night. Great clarity & headroom, no feedback...four piece band with drums, 2 guitars and bass, 3 vocal mikes...classic rock material and, uh...we're pretty loud ;) |
