Default: Low SETUP Activates the X-FDBK detection engine. When on, the Setup button is red.

But it cannot distinguish between, let’s say, the electric guitar feedback that guitarists love so much, and undesired feedback from a vocal mic. If the detection engine is active during the show, X-FDBK might be triggered by sounds that you do want people to hear. - Page 11 Your filters are set to a Q of 0.7 and a cut of -20 dB, and there is still feedback around the filter frequencies. These are the maximum cut and the widest Q that X-FDBK will provide, so if feedback persists despite these settings, it’s likely that the gain structure is incorrect or there is a problem with the sound system itself.
