FBX-1020 ENGINEERING SPECIFICATIONS

(SPECIFICATIONS SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE)

FILTERS

10 independent digital notch filters, controlled automatically from 40
Hz to 20 KHz.

Filter width: user-controllable, either 1/10 or 1/5 oct., Constant Q 

1

Resolution: 1/50th Octave

Time required to find and eliminate feedback: 0.4 seconds,
typical @ 1KHz

Total number of combined filters active: user selectable, from
1-10

Number of dynamic vs. fixed filters: user selectable

LAST CONFIGURATION STORED IN MEMORY

INPUT/OUTPUT 

2

Input/Output Maximum Signal Levels: Ba27dBV peak,
unba21 dBV peak

Output Drive: Unit will perform as specified driving a load >600
Ohms

Input Impedance: Balanced or unbalanced >10K Ohms, PIN 2 high

Output Impedance: Balanced or unbalanced 10 Ohms nominal, PIN
2 high

Bypass: True power off bypass

Headroom: +23dB peak @ 4dBV nominal input, balanced

I/O Connectors: XLR-3 and 1/4" TRS

PERFORMANCE 

3

Spectral Variation: < .25 dB, 20Hz to 20 KHz

SNR: >100 dB, typical, "A" weighted

NOTES

1

Below approximately 200 Hz the feedback filters become slightly
wider to increase the feedback and rumble capture speed at these
low frequencies.

2

Note: Inputs may be balanced or unbalanced.  For maximum output
capability, outputs must be balanced (XLR or TRS).  If either side of
an output is grounded, the peak output and dynamic range will be
reduced by 6 dB.

3

Tests performed using an Audio Precision System One model 322
or equal.

THD: <0.02% @ 23 dBV sine wave at 1 KHz

Dynamic Range: >110 dB with ClipGuard™ automatic clip level
control active

POWER INPUT

Factory configured to either 115 VAC or 230 VAC.  50/60 Hz, 12
Watt input.

FUSE REPLACEMENT

To reduce the risk of fire, replace only with 5x20 mm, .315 A, 250 V,
fast-acting fuse.

7.0 lbs. (3.3 kg) nominal

OPTIONS

Input/output transformer option

All FBX Feedback Exterminators conform to all Year 2000 (Y2K)
standards.
