Description

Peavey Feedback Ferret D Overview

The Feedback Ferret D from Peavey is a special stereo processor that locates and suppresses frequencies that are feeding back in a sound system. When plugged in between the main outputs of a mixer and the power amplifier of a PA system, 16 digital filters analyze the audio for offending feedback frequencies. Custom algorithms help the Feedback Ferret D distinguish between music and feedback loops. When feedback is detected, the troublesome frequencies are instantly suppressed without interrupting the program material.

The Feedback Ferret D can be used time and time again without the need to adjust its parameters, making it a great "set-and-forget" problem solver for sound installations. It can operate in dual channel stereo mode, or in dual mono mode to fight feedback in two separate audio chains. A "defeat" switch on the rear panel locks the controls on the front panel. The Feedback Ferret D can also be set up to recall the last settings used, or revert back to preset 1 on power up. You can save 4 different presets.

Dynamically suppresses feedback using sophisticated "search & destroy" filters that find, lock in and kill offending frequencies

Sixteen individual filters can operate simultaneously (eight dynamically react to input changes)

Stereo or "dual mono" operation which enables 32 dynamically-controlled filters

Set-and-Forget operation in fixed installations such as churches and auditoriums

Four presets for your most common performance venues

Rear panel defeat button locks the front panel controls

Extra "panic" filters for quick control of sudden, severe feedback

Balanced XLR and TRS inputs and outputs

24-bit converters and a sample rate of 48 kHz
