In this hour-long webinar, we will look at tips, tools, and techniques for maximizing gain-before-feedback, and bust some myths about less helpful approaches.

Back by popular demand, this webinar addresses one of the most frustrating audio issues for both musicians and engineers.

Everybody knows what feedback sounds like: the annoying squeal that's all too common in live sound situations. "Gain-before-feedback" refers to how loud a sound system can be turned up before feedback occurs. In this hour-long webinar, we will look at tips, tools, and techniques for maximizing gain-before-feedback, and bust some myths about less helpful approaches.

Topics to be covered include:

  • What causes feedback? (Hint: it's not the microphone!)
  • What is potential acoustic gain?
  • How should automatic microphone mixers be used?
  • How do feedback reducers work?


We will be joined by Michael Pettersen, Shure's expert on automatic mixers and their history.
