Where to EQ for Feedback

[@starikxatabich1412]

Great video! This is a constant struggle between feedback and "we can't hear ourselves" shouts from choir. Would appreciate any more videos working with choirs. Huge thanks and God bless!

[@AttawayAudio]

Thanks! I'll see if I can wrangle one up for you :)

I really appreciate your advice! THANKS and God bless you, James!

The master eq is the last place I go. I have 2 choir mics and 2 other suspended mics for our bell choir and only one I would consider behind the array...they're more off to the side. I was able to gain up the bell mics but the choir mics were extremely touchy so into the house eq and I notched out the offending frequencies. Next project...the pastor's lavalier mic. Sometimes there's a low mid after ring and I've found that the high pass filter can cure it but our sanctuary is huge and a trainwreck for acoustics....no treatment anywhere. Thanks for the great ideas.

Very good point about a mic that moves around the stage in front of different monitor wedges/sends. We don’t have that problem but I hadn’t really thought about it before.

The dbx pa2 and venue is awesome and the entire line helps for room correction and feedback auto detect.

Excellent video! I have done similar things to reduce feedback, I have both notched channel eq and monitors but that’s if it’s last resort I usually start in the channel.

Oh the lav mic, love-hate relationship with that thing. I didn’t realize that option added another layer of eq, that’s awesome.

Great video! Don’t for get if your doing MONS from FOH you can always double patch into a second channel and then use Channel one for FOH and use and channel 2 for MONS i always do it that way, main reasons being is I do additive eq for FOH and subtractive for mons

Good tip! And another reason to have a console with a high channel count :)

I was made the new Tech director in my church and I came across your channel recently, I must say I have learnt alot from your videos. Thanks for providing useful information to help people like me grow. We have a PreSonus 64S and I can see that you use the Series iii console a lot which has helped me this far. However, we are looking to improve our broadcast mix and still searching for a solution on how to send all the mix channel to a DAW for online mix with our mixer. Any suggestions or idea would help. Thanks

This video gives an overview of how to make it work kzbin.info/www/bejne/r6fNhmV9qdioeck

@@AttawayAudio thanks for the reply, I'm trying the new metro from PreSonus as I have changed my mind on using a DAW now. However, I'm using your video to learn how to use external plugins on the PreSonus mixer. All thanks to you

Really cool video.

Another reasons for using subgroup for ringing out the feedback are: a) If you have several lapel/headsets mics (and they're all the same capsule), one fixed in the subgroup means all are already fixed, so you save time. b) It is not unusual in corporate/church events that you're streaming, recording, sending the mics to a simultaneus translation system, etc. You can feed them by mixbuses and if you use a subgroup to notch the feedback and send it to the main PA, those notches will not be in those sendings that don't need them

love it! thanks for the comment

[@khalilroukoz]

ill tell you where 😂😂

[@annasoH323]

Obligatory “I’m the video guy” comment but 100% nothing like feedback for the sound tech solo. We’ve been on IEMs for our main worship team for a while but we still get peaky points on certain lavs/headsets.

[@AttawayAudio]

so true
