Live feedback processor?

I have a friend that wants one of these. His system is all analog with Alto powered cabs for mains and monitors.

I’ve never needed one so I don’t have experience in this gear.

Opinions, comments, and experiences welcomed.

I use the Feedback suppression in my Driveracks for the mains and monitors every time my system fires up. I have no idea how often it kicks in - if it does at all. We try to keep feedback at bay through proper positioning of mics and monitors. But, it's always there. I have it set to hold the suppression for a few seconds, then release....always using the LIVE mode.

Honestly, it must work occassionally, because we never have feedback....

Ha! All of the old ones. I have a PA, PA+, PX, and a spare PA+

PA+ is on the mains and the PA and PX are on the monitors for 4 channels of mono.

The feedback supression works the same on all of 'em. The PA2 just lets you do everthing with an iPad.
