4.2 Funtzionamendu moduak
The FBQ2496 offers several operating modes to suit different applications:
- Modu automatikoa: Continuously monitors the mix and automatically sets filters to suppress feedback. This is the "set-and-forget" default setting.
- Single-Shot Mode: Automatically detects and destroys feedback, then locks the filters until they are manually reset. This is useful for ringing out a room before a performance.
- Manual Mode (Parametric EQ): Allows individual programming of up to 40 fully-parametric filters with adjustable frequency, bandwidth, and gain. This mode is ideal for precise sound shaping.
4.3 Basic Feedback Suppression (Auto Mode)
- Ensure all connections are secure and the unit is powered on.
- Set your mixer's output levels to a moderate level.
- Sakatu IKASI button to activate Auto Mode. The unit will begin analyzing the audio signal.
- Gradually increase the microphone gain until feedback starts to occur. The FBQ2496 will quickly identify and suppress the feedback frequencies.
- The unit will automatically set ultra-narrow FBQ filters to eliminate the feedback while preserving the sonic quality of your signal.
- For immediate feedback emergencies, press the IKARA botoia.
