CONTROLLING FEEDBACK

Feedback, a howling noise or shrill sound, is self-generated by the sound system.  It’s caused by 
a microphone picking up the sound coming from the speaker and then re-amplifying it.  Once a 
feedback loop starts, it continues until the system is adjusted.

 
FEEDBACK CAUSES

•  Microphone too close, pointing towards or in front of speaker
•  Volume setting is too loud for room
•  Sound reflecting off hard surfaces

 
AVOIDING & ELIMINATING FEEDBACK

•  Point microphone in a different direction
•  Keep microphone away from the sound system
•  Place sound system in FRONT of the microphone
•  Reduce the sound system volume levels

 

CAUTION:  Feedback can damage your equipment & may be hazardous to hearing.

CORRECT SYSTEM PLACEMENT

WRONG SYSTEM PLACEMENT

Warning:

 If you are reading this warning within a few 

feet of the Bigfoot at maximum volume, please step 
away from this thunderous beast. Hearing protection is 
recommended. Your ears will thank you.
