5.3 FBQ Feedback Detection System

The FBQ system helps identify and eliminate feedback frequencies:

1. Peze a FBQ switch to activate the feedback detection mode.
2. When feedback occurs, the LEDs above the corresponding frequency sliders will illuminate brightly.
3. Gently lower the slider for the illuminated frequency until the feedback is eliminated or significantly reduced.
4. Repeat this process for any other feedback frequencies that appear.
