FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO FBQ2496 User Manual

5. Connectivity Options

◊

The FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO is not intended to be connected directly
to the microphones! If this is unavoidable, then we recommend our
proven BEHRINGER SHARK DSP110 instead, which is equipped with a
dedicated microphone preamplifier.

◊

No amount of fancy gear can undo the mistakes committed when
selecting the locations for microphones! Therefore, when you
set up your mics, use them according to their directivity and
feedback susceptibility.

5.1 FBQ2496 in the monitor path

Due to its 2-channel architecture, the FBQ2496 is ideal for use with two monitor

paths. Connect your mixing console

’

s pre-fader aux outputs to the FBQ2496

inputs, as shown in fig. 5.1. The monitor power amp inputs are then connected to

the FBQ2496 outputs.
Using the FBQ2496 in the monitor path can considerably augment the

volume level.

5.2 FBQ2496 in channel insert

Since you want to make sure that deliberately produced feedback signals, such as

“guitar feedback,” are not eliminated, try inserting the FBQ2496 into those

channels that are susceptible to feedback. For example, you could process a vocal

microphone that is prone to producing feedback by connecting the FBQ2496 to

the insert points of the respective channel.

◊

When processing a microphone signal with the DSP1124P and a
compressor inserted into the same channel insert point, the FBQ2496
should always be used pre-compressor.

If your mixing console features subgroups with their own inserts, this is perfect

for connecting the FBQ2496! Route all the channels prone to feedback (e.g. all

vocal microphones) to one subgroup. This way, channels that are less prone to

feedback (e.g. line signals, instrument microphones with lower signal levels)

can freely pass through the FBQ2496; only the critical microphone channels are

being modified.
In case your mixing console features no subgroup insert, we recommend

the following: connect the subgroup output to one FBQ2496 input. On the

other hand, the corresponding output is either connected to an unused line

input of a mixer channel or to one of its Aux Return inputs. As long as both

FBQ2496 channels are not coupled, the second FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO

channel is available to you for a completely different purpose (e.g. use it on a

channel insert).

LEVEL METER

The LEVEL METER lets you monitor the input level. Eight LEDs are available per channel. If the Clip LED lights up, digital distortion may occur on FBQ2496’s input. In this case, reduce the input level.

LEARN button

A quick tap on the LEARN button (LED lights up) gets you into the LEARN mode. The FBQ2496 will immediately start looking for critical frequencies and will deploy as many Single-Shot filters as necessary (of course, music or noise has to be present in the room for this to work). Besides, using the wheel , you can manually determine the number of Single-Shot filters (max. 20 per channel). See ch.4.1.

If you keep the LEARN button pressed for longer than one second (LED blinks), the FBQ2496 generates progressively louder impulses to generate feedback. The feedback thus created enters the FBQ2496 at its input, where it is recognized and suppressed. This mode is called AUTOLEARN (ch. 4.1).

You can replace fuses at the FUSE SWITCH of the FBQ2496. Always replace fuses with the same type. Please follow the instructions given in chapter 9 “SPECIFICATIONS.”

SERIAL NUMBER

Fig. 3.5: FBQ2496’s MIDI connections jacks

The FBQ2496 features a complete set of MIDI functions. In addition to the usual MIDI IN and MIDI OUT ports, the MIDI THRU allows you to loop through MIDI data.

Fig. 3.6: FBQ2496’s rear connections

Use the OPERATING LEVEL switch to change from home recording level (-10 dBV) to studio level (+4 dBu), and vice versa. The level meters are adapted automatically to the selected nominal level, so that the FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO will always work in its optimum operating range.

INPUT LEFT/RIGHT

These are the balanced inputs of your FBQ2496. They are laid out as 1/4' TRS and XLR connectors.

OUTPUT LEFT/RIGHT

Both of the FBQ2496 outputs are also laid out as balanced 1/4' TRS and XLR connectors.

4. FBQ2496 FILTERS

The FBQ2496 filters can be set up in an extremely narrow-band fashion. This way, the FBQ2496 changes the way your music sounds to such a minor extent that the actual change is absolutely negligible and inaudible.

Fig. 4.1: Filter curve of a narrow-band filter

1.Press POWER to turn the unit on. The display shows run (run).

2.Select whether you wish to run your FBQ2496 in stereo or in mono ( ).

Let us assume that both FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO channels are coupled in stereo.

The 20 filters pro channel can be divided up among Single-Shot filters, automatic filters and parametric filters (fig. 4.2).

+The number of all filter types per channel is always 20!

+If the number of both fixed and parametric filters is set to zero, your FBQ2496 operates with 20 automatic filters per channel.

Fig. 4.2: Different filter types (shown here in stereo operation)

4.1 Setting up Single-Shot filters

If no Single-Shot filters have been set up, the FBQ2496 looks for critical frequencies after being powered up, and deploys as many filters as necessary to combat the problem.

Single-Shot filters can be set up to work with extreme dependability and comfort. To this end, either use the LEARN or the AUTOLEARN function of your FBQ2496.

+To work with the LEARN or the AUTOLEARN function, the FBQ2496 must be connected to a PA system.

+Using the LEARN or AUTOLEARN functions only makes sense if you are dealing with PA systems and rooms that are also used for concerts and recordings.

LEARN mode

1.Briefly press the LEARN button.

The button LED lights up and the LED on the PANIC button blinks. The current number of Single-Shot filters is shown in the display. (S 0 = no Single-Shot filter selected, S20 = all filters deployed as Single-Shot filters).

The FBQ2496 immediately starts searching for critical frequencies at maximum speed and deploys as many SingleShot filters as necessary (for this to work, your room has to have a functioning PA system with a signal fed into it). The number of filters deployed will be increased on a per-need basis and will be shown in the display.

2.You can use the wheel to change the number of Single-Shot filters afterwards as well.

3.Press the LEARN button again to exit.

AUTOLEARN mode

This function is useful for automatically setting up Single-Shot filters before the start of a live performance (“priming” the unit).

1.Keep the LEARN button pressed for longer than one second. Then, the following happens automatically:

s The button LED blinks.

s All Single-Shot filters and automatic filters are reset. s A time countdown runs in the display, from 16 seconds

to zero (L16, L15, .. , L 1, L 0).

The FBQ2496 creates impulses with a signal level of -15 dB in order to provoke feedback. The overall amplification of your FBQ2496 is incrementally increased from 0 dB to 15 dB). The FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO detects the critical frequencies and lowers them in an extremely narrow-band fashion.

2.Critical frequencies are consecutively lowered and stored in the storage slots of the Single-Shot filters.

3.After the time had run out, the procedure is over. The LED on the LEARN button is no longer lit and the display shows run.

+The frequency of the adjusted Single-Shot filters can not be manually changed afterwards. However, minor feedback frequency changes are implemented automatically. Gain adjustment is also automatically performed in the background, constantly adjusting to the current conditions.

+If a satisfactory setting for the Single-Shot and automatic filters has been achieved, you can keep this setting by pressing the FREEZE button. The display shows: -.

FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO FBQ2496

4.2 Setting up parametric filters

Some or even all 40 filters on your FBQ2496 can be deployed as parametric filters. They have to be set up in a targeted fashion, with great precision. The frequency, bandwidth and gain parameters are available.

Selecting the number of parametric filters

1.Keep the PEQ button pressed for a few moments. The LED on the PEQ button blinks, and the display shows the current number of parametric filters (p 0 = no parametric filters deployed, P20 = all filters are parametric). Additionally, the LEDs on the deployed Single-Shot filters are lit.

2.You can use the wheel to change the number of parametric filters.

The display shows the number of deployed parametric filters,

and the corresponding LEDs in the status display ( ) are lit.

3.Pressing the PEQ button again briefly completes the procedure.

+Now, the only parametric filters whose LEDs are still lit are those whose gain (either positive or negative) does not equal zero.

Setting up frequency, bandwidth, gain

You should implement the following procedure with each individual parametric filter:

1.Briefly press the PEQ button.

The LED on the PEQ button is lit. The display indicates the number of the selected filter (e.g. 19).

2.Use the wheel to select the parametric filter whose values you wish to modify.

+Any filter may be selected using the wheel! However, the parameters of the Single-Shot and automatic filters can only be displays and can not be modified!

3.After you press the FREQUENCY button, use the wheel to set the filter mid frequency (the LED on the button blinks).

You can get a precise readout of the set mid frequency by observing the display and the status of the Hz/kHz LED next to it.

To modify exactly the frequency band you have in mind, you can shift the filter’s bandwidth.

4.Briefly press the BANDWIDTH button.

5.Turning the wheel changes the filter’s bandwidth. The 1/60

LED lights up if a value lower than 0.1 is set (1 x 1/60, 2 x 1/60 .. 5 x 1/60). In case of larger bandwidths, the value is shown directly in the display (0.1, 0.2 .. 1.0, 1.1 .. 10.0).

A parametric filter becomes engaged only after an increase/ decrease of the set frequency is entered:

6.Briefly press the GAIN button. The LED on the button is lit. At the same time, the dB LED under the 3-digit display is also lit.

7.The gain can be adjusted using the wheel. The available values range from 15 dB to - 36 dB (can be changed in 0.5-dB increments in the +15 dB to -15 dB range; in 1-dB increments in the -16 to -36 dB range). The value is shown in the display.

+The FBQ2496 has a 3-digit display. Positive values are easily represented (14, 14.5, 15). For negative values, complete representation would require 4 digits. However, because the display only shows 3 digits, the position after the decimal point is omitted and replaced by a dot to the right of the first two digits (-15, -14.(5), -14, -13.(5)), which stands for the missing decimal value.

8.Press the PEQ button briefly again to complete the procedure.

+The status display only shows the filters whose gain does not equal to zero (either positive or negative).

4.3 Setting up automatic filters

The number of automatic filters can not be separately set. It results from the number of fixed and parametric filters (fig. 4.2).

+To lower the number of automatic filters, increase the number of Single-Shot and/or parametric filters.

The automatic filters automatically spring into action on a perneed basis during a performance or a recording session. Of course, having the FBQ2496 react to changing situations would be desirable. To allow for this, you need to establish a setup in which the automatic filters are only periodically active, setting themselves back to zero afterwards in order to be ready for the next instance in which feedback is occurring.

The so-called “Filter Lifting Time” informs you about how long a filter set to automatic may remain active before its values are reset back to zero. This Filter Lifting Time can be set on the FBQ2496.

1.Press the FILTER LIFT button. The LED on the button starts to blink.

2.Using the wheel, Filter Lifting Time can either be turned off (off) or can be set to 1 min, 5 min, 10 min, 30 min or 60 min.

3.To exit this menu, press the FILTER LIFT button again. The LED no longer blinks.

4.If a Filter Lifting Time value has been set (i.e. any value other than off!), the button LED is lit.

+If a satisfactory setting for the Single-Shot and automatic filters has been achieved, you can keep this setting by pressing the FREEZE button. The display shows: -.

5.CONNECTIVITY OPTIONS

+The FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO is not intended to be connected directly to the microphones! If this is unavoidable, then we recommend our proven BEHRINGER SHARK DSP110 instead, which is equipped with a dedicated microphone preamplifier.

+No amount of fancy gear can undo the mistakes committed when selecting the locations for microphones! Therefore, when you set up your mics, use them according to their directivity and feedback susceptibility.

5.1 FBQ2496 in the monitor path

Due to its 2-channel architecture, the FBQ2496 is ideal for use with two monitor paths. Connect your mixing console’s pre-fader aux outputs to the FBQ2496 inputs, as shown in fig. 5.1. The monitor power amp inputs are then connected to the FBQ2496 outputs.

Using the FBQ2496 in the monitor path can considerably augment the volume level.

FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO FBQ2496

7. MIDI CONTROL

MIDI stands for “Musical Instrument Digital Interface.” It is a “language” used to transmit control information between different electronic devices: instruments, PCs, drum computers, effects units, etc. That way, a device’s parameters can be automatically modified at a previously determined point in time.

To make such communication possible, the following conditions have to be met:

sAll devices must be correctly connected to one another.

sOne device, called “master,” sends MIDI information via one or several MIDI channels. The device receiving control information, called “slave,” has to be set to the correct MIDI channel in order to receive the information.

sThe control information being sent has to be “understood” by the MIDI devices receiving it.

7.1 MIDI connections

The MIDI connectors found on the rear panel are on internationally standardized 5-pin DIN jacks. You need dedicated MIDI cables to connect the FBQ2496 to other MIDI equipment. Normally, complete cables will be purchased for this use. MIDI cables should have a maximum length not exceeding 15 meters.

MIDI IN: Receives MIDI control data. The receive channel is determined in the SETUP menu.

MIDI THRU: Provides an unchanged copy of the signal received at the MIDI IN, for example, to daisy-chain several FBQ2496.

MIDI OUT: Transmits MIDI data to a connected computer or other FBQ2496. Transmitted are program data as well as status information for signal processing.

+No loop lines are allowed with MIDI connections, i.e. the master device can send only control information, and the slave device(s) can only receive control information–and not the other way around. Depending on your application, some devices can function both as masters and slaves.

7.2 Activating and deactivating MIDI

With some applications, having the option to disable the MIDI function of a device can be useful. This means that the device does not react to the incoming MIDI control data; instead, it merely passes the incoming MIDI signal through.

The FBQ2496 gives you the option to decide whether it should react to incoming MIDI control data.

Behringer Fbq1000 Feedback Destroyer

+Even when the MIDI function is deactivated on the FBQ2496, the MIDI signal still passes through the unit and can be tapped into at the MIDI THRU connector.

1.Press BANDWIDTH and BYPASS simultaneously. The MIDI menu is activated if the LEDs on both buttons as well as the MIDI LED under the display are blinking.

2.Press the BANDWIDTH button; then use the wheel to activate or deactivate MIDI.

MIDI on: on MIDI off: off

3.Press any button to exit this menu.

7.3 Adjusting a MIDI channel

Using a MIDI channel, a master can transmit 16 different data segments, each one using its own channel. To make sure a slave only receives the information intended for it, the corresponding MIDI channels have to be assigned to it first.

1.Press BANDWIDTH and BYPASS simultaneously. The MIDI menu is activated if the LEDs on both buttons as well as the MIDI LED under the display are blinking.

2.Press BANDWIDTH again. Now, a MIDI channel can be selected using the wheel. The display shows channel numbers as follows: c 1, .. c14, c15, c16.

3.Press any button to exit this menu.

7.4 MIDI controller

Each one of the 16 MIDI channels can transmit a lot of different information–for example, note, keystroke strength and the so-called controllers.

A controller is a command (e.g. instrument, volume, balance, footswitch position) that in certain situations has to be defined very specifically. A total of 128 different controllers can be set up. There are several standards (0 = bank select, 7 = main volume) but no fixed norm for the assignment of controllers to specific controller numbers (0 - 127) exists. Different MIDI devices may react differently to the same controller numbers.

To effectively control your FBQ2496, it is important to know which controller numbers can influence individual parameters.

8.INSTALLATION

8.1Installation in a rack

The FBQ2496 requires one height unit (1 HE) for mounting in a 19' rack. Please keep in mind that an additional 10 cm (4') of depth in the back are required to enable trouble-free access to the connectors on the rear panel.

For rack installation, please use M6 machine screws and nuts.

Please make sure that your FBQ2496 has enough cooling air, and never put it on an amp or other heat-emitting equipment to avoid overheating.

8.2 Audio connections

The inputs and outputs on your FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO are laid out completely balanced. Whenever possible, try to establish balanced connections to other equipment in order to maximize disturb signal compensation.

MIDI connections (IN/OUT/THRU) are established using the standard DIN connectors. Data transmission is achieved using a floating opto-coupler.
