"Super Feedback Suppression and Affordable - What a Concept!"

Quality:
I have had no problems with the unit. I did have the cheaper Behringer older unit ad I had "clock hash" noise always at a low level coming through and it was much slower and harder to use. This unit has worked very well.

Value:
Great value.

Desirability:
Looks like a piece of rack mount audio gear, nothing special.

Sound:
No noise from the unit, and it does a great job of suppressing feedback. Too difficult to use as a parametric EQ, don't waste your time.

Ease of Use:
Easy to set up for Feedback suppression, and that is what I bought it for. I have used it for over a year in my band's monitor amp & EQ rack. We run four separate monitor mixes and I have used it to suppress feedback on two of those channels. Other channels feedback is regulated by a much more expensive Sabine filter and it does the same job at less than 25% the cost! Way to go Behringer.

Support:
no experience

Overall:
This unit meets my band's needs and I don't plan on replacing it.

"Great for very precise filtering."

Feature:
I use this as a parametric equalizer in manual mode. Even though another review said this didn't make much sense it does to me. The key is that this will do 1/60th octave filters. This is amazing and is very usefull for room peaks for low frequency (sub-woofer) improvement. Room treatments don't work very well at these frequencies and this product is the best solution.

Quality:
I wish the side panels extended under the rack mounts wings. You can't remove the wings or else the sides are open. Overall, the build looks good.

Value:
Very high value. I haven't found anything else that will do this for this kind of price.

Desirability:
The lights look cool until you want them off. :-) I use this in a home theater setting and cover up the red LEDs because they are too bright. For a rack look it would be sexy.

Sound:
I can't detect any noise from the unit.

Ease of Use:
Setting up the filters manually isn't a big deal once you do it once. Also, there is software avialable that will do it via MIDI download.

Support:
There documentation is OK but they could explain things a bit better about setting filters.

Overall:
I have not found any other product close to this value. There are systems that can do filtering like this but at many times the cost.

Description

News
The FBQ2496 is the fastest (>0.2 sec.) and the only 96kHz feedback suppressor on the market. Using an ultra-fast feedback detection algorithm, it automatically and 'intelligently' locates up to 20 feedback frequencies per channel and sets extremely narrow notch filters to 'destroy' them, leaving the remainder of the signal virtually untouched. Easy does it: with the 'Set-and-Forget' default setting plus the Panic button, your Feedback Destroyer can be up and running in no time! The auto mode continuously monitors the mix, resetting programmed filters automatically, while the manual mode allows individual setting of up to 40 fully parametric filters with frequency, bandwidth and gain adjustment. Open MIDI architecture means that future software updates and flexible communication with digital equipment are a no-brainer. With its various modes you can master just about any live sound situation or use it as a creative sound-shaping tool.
