I use a Behringer DEQ 2496 in my hifi stereo set. It is really amazing what positive results you can get by using the GEQ and the PEQ. But now I wonder if I can use the Feedback Destroyer from the DEQ 2496 as a kind of “De-esser” to avoid the sharp esses that occur in many recordings of both male and female voices. I understand that the result will never be as good as when you use a dedicated De-esser or voice processor, but still. What adjustments should I make in the FBD? What frequency (s) must be killed?
Hi,
can be one or a combination of the following :
a) Too bright treble sounds reasonably good (fast) until you come
across spoken or sung siibilants, adding a series resistor to MG
treble units is quite common as far as I'm aware.
b) Poorly recorded CD's or LP's (if LP's also too bright a cartridge).
c) Amplifier clipping at peak levels.

Hi,
As far as I know 3-way Maggies are usually supplied with a
resistor that optionally can be placed in the treble circuit
to offer an alternative treble balance.
So I'd assume there is a jumper that can be removed, (the
treble unit is disconnected) and be replaced with a resistor.
