Behringer FBQ800 Ultra-Compact 9-Band Graphic Equalizer with FBQ
Why do I need an equalizer?
If we all lived in a perfect world, there would be no need for audio equalization. Sound systems would be perfect and would reproduce perfect signals in all their glorious perfection. Also, everyone in that perfect world would like the same amount of bass, midrange and high frequency, and there would be no such thing as feedback. But the world isn’t perfect, is it? Even the best sound system can benefit from the use of a good EQ—like the FBQ800.
How Does it Work?
Imagine the frequency range of the sound you hear as a highway, a very wide one with nine lanes. Each of these “lanes” represents a single octave of the sonic spectrum. The first four lanes, labeled 63 - 500 (Hz) contain the really low frequency sound content, mainly bass, bass vocals, and the kick and tom drums. The three lanes labeled 1 k, 2 k and 4 k (Hz), make up the fundamental zone of most musical instruments and the male and female vocals. 8 k and 16 k cover the frequency range of cymbals, snare drums and higher pitched percussion instruments. The FBQ800 allows you to control the flow of audio traffic in each of these nine lanes. When properly applied, EQ makes it possible to hear all of these frequency ranges equally, thus the term equalization.
Feedback Elimination
When a specific frequency, or range of frequencies, reaches too high a level, feedback occurs—that all-too-familiar squeal or howl you get when the mic is too close to the speaker. Basically, feedback happens when there is so much of a particular frequency that it is picked up by the mic and run through the system again. That’s why feedback typically gets louder and louder the longer it’s allowed to occur. Needless to say, this kind of feedback is very undesirable. This is where the FBQ800’s Feedback Detection System really works its magic. In this ingenious circuitry, LEDs on the individual faders light up when that frequency band is approaching the danger zone. All you need do is lower the illuminated slider until the LED blinks out—voilà, feedback problem solved! What once required a highly trained ear is now an activity that even a child can master.
- Ultra-compact 9.5" graphic equalizer for studio and stage applications
- Revolutionary FBQ Feedback Detection system instantly reveals critical frequencies and can also be used as Audio Analyzer
- Additional Low-cut filter removes unwanted frequencies, e. g. floor rumble
- Accurate 6-segment LED input/output meters and Level control for precise level indication
- High-quality illuminated faders, potentiometers and illuminated switches for long-term reliability
- Ultra-low noise audio operational amplifiers offer outstanding sound performance
- All Mini Series models can be stacked on top of each other to create an ultra-compact signal processor solution
- 3-Year Warranty Program*
- Designed and engineered in Germany

Customer Reviews
Received my order today.very good packaging and well wrapped..fast delivery within a week.keyboard were in excellent condition.thank you Zoso Music job well done guys..!!!
I got this because my previous shock mount broke & my current mic needs one to stay up.
Aside from being the cheapest option among the other sites, the product itself is built pretty well. I've bought other product from Gator Frameworks before so I knew that it was going to be worth the money.
The only issue I have with it is how the clips that you use to try to slot in the mic is a little too short as it was difficult to get it open. Other than that, it does what a shock mount does.
gitar sangat memuaskan,Sesuai untuk permulaan and gitar sound sgt memuaskan
Multiple functions and effect, even amp simulation and drum. The most worth buying multi effect under rm1000
Its between this and fender champion, and i absolutely love this crush 12. Maybe small in size but it punched well in volume. Nice clean tones and heavy distortion too. Recommended for practice amps or maybe small venue performance too.
Bought a different model at first but sold out and i replaced with this strat. Couldn't be happy, the guitar feels great, color, design, quality all good. What i love the most is the after sales service, had trouble in setting up the guitar after changing to heavier gauge and zoso helped me resetting it with no cost. Great service especially to Amin and Jack.
Genuine, no damage, easy to set, (obviously not set yet, probably still in factory setting), overall satisfied with the purchased. Will be shopping again in the future.
AWESOME !!! work with my DAW pretty well. Many things to explore
Amin was very patient and attentive in answering all my question. Quick turnaround and superb service.
Higly recommended 💪💪💪
