So do you know any professional engineer that can kill multiple unexpected feedback frequencies in less than 0.3 of a second? It takes longer than that to reach for the master foldback DCA!
And no matter how good you think you are – sooner or later you will have unexpected feedback – like when someone trips on a mic stand and the mic lands on the monitor! I believe there is a place for feedback suppressors for this reason alone. Not to mention that these consoles are destined to a very wide range of end users including Church’s/Schools etc who don’t necessarily have experienced operators at hand! Having said that I can’t see them being included anyway as they are fairly processor hungry and the iLive CPU probably doesn’t have enough spare processing available? If on the other hand they could be included and worked well then why not? Just bypass them and you can still claim to be professional!
