Feedback Issues

I love the sound of this pedal, but unfortunately I was never able to use it live because of the issues with feedback. Disappointed.

Nearly impossible to use in a live situation.

Creates unbearable amounts of feedback when using any of the effects in an effect chain. A work around is to have the pedal set up with its own microphone however I assume most people like myself wanted to be able to switch this on and off on their main mic. After some research, TC helicon seem to take the stand that it's simply the 'nature of the beast' and offer not much consolation apart from make sure your monitoring is set up correctly (meaning super quiet and everyone far away from eachother as possible) but thats pretty much not going to be possible in a stage or practice room situation .

Build quality is heavy duty and feel solid/reliable. Shame their isnt some kind of feedback compensation built in as it's rendered useless
