I'm wondering is annoying experiencing any issues with certain freq. in Feedback Eliminator not playing out? For some reason I'm getting nothing below 40hz. I'm not convinced its a hardware issue because I use this module,

every day and my AKG K240s can very clearly produce down to 20hz and in Feedback Eliminator I don't hear any 40hz when given the question. Before I put a ticket into SG, I'm curious if anyone has noticed any issues or is aware of any bugs.

40hz is the lowest fr. in Feedback Eliminator, and I with my AKG 271 MK II hear it good.

Even though the specs of 240's say "15 cps - 25000 cps" the amount of rumble you probably listen to is coming from higher frequencies < 40 cps. That's how masking works, if you are playing a pure tone, there are not overtones to reconstruct it easily, so your ear can't identify it easily.

Thanks for the responses. Kind of odd but today I'm definitely getting the tone at 40hz in Eliminator. Tried calibrating my ears with a sine tone out of my DAW at 40 and can pick it up fine. So the issue was probably relative to my brain and fatigue :P
