From Our Catalog
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.
Features:
Automatically and 'intelligently' locates and destroys up to 20 frequencies per channel
Ultra-fast feedback detection (>0.2 sec) due to proprietary FFT signal analysis
Ultra-narrow notch-filters (up to 1/60th octave) for very effective feedback suppression, while keeping highest sonic quality
'Set-and-forget' default setting plus Panic button enable immediate and super-easy Feedback Destroyer performance
Auto mode continuously monitors the mix, resetting programmed filters automatically
Single-shot mode automatically detects and destroys feedback and locks the filter until you reset it manually
Manual mode allows individual setting of up to 40 fully parametric filters with frequency, bandwidth and gain adjustment
Ultra-high resolution 24-bit/96 kHz A/D and D/A converter powered by a 32-bit DSP for ultimate audio performance
Open MIDI architecture for future software updates and flexible communication with digital equipment
Balanced inputs and servo-balanced outputs with gold-plated XLR and 1/4' TRS connectors
Internal switch-mode power supply for maximum flexibility (100 - 240 V~), noise-free audio, superior transient response plus lowest possible power consumption for energy savings

Behringer FBQ2496 Feedback Destroyer Pro Reviews
10 out of 10

"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.

"Operating manual ISSUES!!... but once you set this unit up you will be pleased!"
Quality:
No problems here, the older unit has worked flawlessly for me now for 3 1/2 years. We play gigs 2-4 per month, we are pleased with how well the unit has performed once in operation.
Value:
Nobody can tough Behringer for price+performance.
Sound:
The unit does what is claims to do... eliminate feedback and allow the audio to be virtually untouched or colored in any way. I am very pleased with the unit once set up.
Ease of Use:
Why a rating of only 5? Because the newer unit OS ver 1.1 purchased in May 2009 does not set up per the operating manual (operating manual ver1.0 written in 2005). I own two of these units, the older unit OS ver1.0 purchased in 2006 sets up as advertised but this unit DOES NOT! You MUST initially put the unit in PEQ mode (parametric eq) and use the fly set up control wheel and set the mumber of parametric filters to some value (I chose zero) and then you can set the number of single shot filters and the balance of the remaining filters will function automatically. THIS INFORMATION SHOULD BE PROVIDED SOMEWHERE!!! After you do this initially it does not need to be repeated because the unit recalls all of the previous settings once the unit is powered down and it works GREAT!
Support:
I have had one experience with the Behringer company and they were very helpful. Zzounds has been wonderful to deal with as I have exchanged products with them and they have been very professional with me.
Overall:
Well built and performs as advertised... but Behringer needs a new technical writer on staff
