Reducing the “howling” noise of a microphone (Feedback Reducer)

When microphone “howling” noise occurs (feedback), the unit detects the relevant frequency and cuts only that frequency band to reduce the “howling” while minimizing the effect on sound quality.

1​Press the [MIXER SETTINGS] button or press and hold the [MENU] button.

The [MIXER SETTINGS] or [UTILITY] screen appears.

2​Select a mode in [Feedback Reducer].

—​[Heavy]: The filter cuts a wide frequency band. Choose this setting when your priority is reducing “howling” noise, e.g. when you’re using a microphone for a speech or to introduce speakers.

—​[Light]: The filter cuts a narrow frequency band. Choose this setting when you want to prioritize sound quality, e.g. when you’re singing or rapping.

•​Select [Off] to turn off [Feedback Reducer].
