- Feedback is an issue every gigging musician will face, especially if we are taking our own PA system to our gigs and setting up in small confined spaces within the venues we perform at.
This video will look at how we can avoid microphone feedback and ways of eliminating it should it still occur.

Many thanks for the detailed info, we are shanty/ Irish band with our own P.A to set up, never find enough time to carry out a proper sound check of the venue, this video gives us a clearer picture of what we need to do, time to crack the whip.
keep the videos coming they are a great help.
When can we expect the mics for live setting video? This is terrific content really!
Goldmine of must-have live sound info. So many musicians don't understand these concepts. Subbed.
Thank you. Hopefully people will these videos useful and help them out at gigs.
Super explain
great information! would love to see a video on how to connect the hardware graphic EQ to one of those small mixers. Thank you!
I stumbled upon your video and this was absolutely great information. I subscribed halfway through once I realized how great you were and providing information. Thank you so much!
Thank you for subscribing. I’m glad you found the video useful.
This was a Gold Mine Of information for a lot of Musicians learning to mix live sound, Great video bro. 🔥🔥🔥
PS: Just make sure to drop the background music when doing those sound checks.👊
Thank you. Yeh I made a bit of an error with the background music and didn’t notice until after uploading. I thought it was a lot quieter when editing but think the video/file compression altered things a little when rending the exported file. Lesson learnt for future videos.
Great video, Brother! Very nice presentation.
Great video but lose the background music. When you were doing the microphone test at around 5.40 it wasnt helping.
Thank you. Yeh I almost dropped the background music for that bit. Noted for next time. Cheers.
Good video mate. I just bought a new house with a big den for jamming and the feedback is crazy. If speaker placement isnt doing the trick would you reccomend higher vocal compression? My guitarist tells me its the way the house is made and the metal behind the walls is causing bad reverberation. I may have to buy sound proof foam.
These video is very nice i love very much ❤ . These video also helps for the Biguners, its very clearly explained. Thank you so much sir , can u upload more videos related to sound 😊
Just found this video accidentally…this is very useful video..and so i hit the botton subscribed..

Excellent, just excellent. Thank you!
Great video. Thanks!
Waiting for further videos ❤
New video on the way soon.
Just amazing ! Thanks lot !
No worries. I hope you found the video useful.
this was great , thank u so much really helped. Can u do a vid for Dis and setting our levels
No worries, glad you found the video useful and good to hear it’s helped. Can you be more specific about what you need some advice with?
@@JaspTechAudio like what levels should everything be at , I.e from the controller, mixer, and speakers
excellent.
Very good. Thanks 🙂
Great video brother
Is your intro on Spotify? its fire just busted out a little boogie
Very helpful. Thank you.
No problem at all, good to hear the video can help somebody. Please subscribe if you haven’t already - I’d really appreciate it.
thank you 4 the infos
I was watching because in my last gig, I had someone speaking and I couldnt get my volume high enough without feed back. In watching this video, I think my lows were too mixer highs, mids and especially the lows will too high. I will try it out at my next gig. Also with people speaking, it is hard to get them to talk into the microphone properly causing me to turn up the gain and volume. I'm using a dynamic microphone (Shure SM58), would a different microphone be better in a live event?
Have you had chance to have a play at another gig yet? When it comes to people just speaking into a microphone it can sometimes be difficult to get the volume needed, especially if the person speaking isn’t talking directly into the microphone. I had this at DJ gig a few weeks ago where somebody used my radio mic to give a speech. They held the mic really low and didn’t speak directly into it. Thankfully though, where they were stood was behind my speakers. I also cut the lows and low mids, which cleaned up the sound and helped prevent feedback. Like I say in my intro I’m a music teacher and I often setup a microphone for the head teacher to use when stood at a lectern. For this I do use a condenser microphone rather than a dynamic microphone. A condenser microphone (which needs phantom power) is designed to pickup sound from further away, but the downside to that is they can then also pickup reflected sound and signals coming from the PA speakers more easily, so you may need to do more work on the graphic EQ. I hope some of that helps.
This is exactly what i struggle with everyday! Please do more videos on this.
This is a good instructional video, easy to understand, but that background music is so distracting, you dont need it, this is not MTV, please re-upload this video minus the background music. Thank you.
i'm a subscriber.
Thank you. Yeh I made a bit of an error with the background music and didn’t notice until after uploading. I thought it was a lot quieter when editing but think the video/file compression altered things a little when rending the exported file. TH-cam doesn’t let you replace videos, only delete them which means losing everything associated with the video. Lesson learnt for future videos though.
@@JaspTechAudiodo you have an email where i can send some questions to?
Thanks
Hi. Yes no problem. It’s JaspTech.audio@gmail.com
I think people have different preferences… The background music actually didn’t bother me at all… 😂
Thanks for this, i really dont think you need the background music at all in my opinion, or have it really really low in general. Its useful content and I found it distracting. Keep it up thankyou!
Thank you. Noted for next time. To be fair, I’ve learnt something doing this video. The music was really low during editing, but it looks like Final Cut has done something whilst exporting the video. It’s either applied some automatic volume changes or the file compression has done something during the export. There are parts of the video where the music gets louder when my talking gets quieter (like when I pull the mic away from my mouth) and other parts when the music pretty much cuts out, like when the mic is feedback during the graphic EQ section. This is something I automated or programmed and only noticed it after I’d uploaded the video. Glad you found the video useful though.
Sounded like a good idea then after 2 videos …… nothing ! Shame
Sorry - more videos will happen. Just been very busy with other things
