DESCRIPTION
The DFR22 Audio Processor with Feedback Reduction is a 2–input, 2–output digital audio processor. It is designed to equalize sound system
response, provide dynamics processing and alignment delay, and automatically detect and control acoustic feedback. A built-in 2 X 2 matrix
mixer allows either or both inputs to be routed to either or both outputs, with additional controls for levels and polarity.
The DFR22 is ideal for installed sound reinforcement applications, such as houses of worship, theaters, and meeting facilities. It is also a
powerful setup tool in live music applications. Using the DFR22’s drag–and–drop graphical user interface, processors can be placed any-
where in the signal path.

DEFAULT PRESETS
The DFR22 comes with three factory-configured presets. Although
a computer is required to configure the DFR22’s equalizers, dy-
namics processors, delays, and crossover, you can use the DFR22
“out of the box” as an automatic feedback reducer, without connect-
ing it to a computer.
Preset 2: Provides a stereo feedback reducer. Signal going into
each input is analyzed independently, but the feedback reducer ap-
plies the same notch filters to each channel. As with Preset 1, Row
A of the DFR filters and controls on the front panel is assigned to the
feedback reducer on Input 1; row B is assigned to the feedback re-
ducer on Input 2. Because the feedback reducers always apply the
same filters to both channels, the DFR filter indicators and controls
are linked.
Preset 1: Provides two independent feedback reducers. The
audio signal going to Input 1 is analyzed and filtered by a feedback
reducer using up to 16 notch filters, and is then routed to Output 1.
Input 2 is analyzed by another feedback reducer and then routed to
Output 2. On the front panel, Row A of the DFR Filters and controls
is assigned to the feedback reducer on Input 1; Row B is assigned
to the feedback reducer on Input 2.
Preset 3:Similar to Preset 1, except both inputs are routed to both
outputs.
FRONT PANEL CONTROL FUNCTIONS
Auto Clear
By default, the DFR22 saves all feedback filters during a preset
change or power cycle. However, you can configure the device to
automatically remove dynamic feedback filters and changes to the
depth of fixed feedback filters, according to parameters that you
specify.
Each time the DFR22 detects a feedback frequency, it assigns that
frequency to one of the filters. By default, the first eight frequencies
are assigned to fixed filters, and the second eight are assigned to
dynamic filters. Both types of filters can deepen if feedback reoc-
curs at the same frequency. The frequency of a fixed filter will not
change unless you manually clear all of the filters. However, if all
filters are in use and an additional feedback frequency is detected,
the DFR22 replaces the oldest existing dynamic filter with a new fil-
ter at a new frequency.
Press to Lock / Hold to Clear
Pressing these buttons locks the filters at their current values. If
Auto Clear is not engaged, holding them down for three seconds
resets all filters. If Auto Clear is engaged, holding them down only
resets dynamic filters. When the PRESS TO LOCK/ HOLD TO
CLEAR LEDs are illuminated, the Lock function is engaged and no
filters can be added or changed. Also, the Auto Clear timer is sus-
pended.
Bypass DFR Filters
Pressing the DFR BYPASS button suspends the feedback reducer
operation and bypasses existing feedback filters. It does NOT af-
fect any other processors. When the DFR BYPASS LED illumi-
nates, the feedback reducer is disengaged.
Changing Presets
Establishing the Auto Clear Function. To establish the Auto
Clear function, proceed as follows:
The Preset Indicator on the front panel displays the number of the
active preset. You can scroll through all presets stored in the device
By pressing the arrow keys on the preset selector. When you select
a preset number, the display blinks. If you press the LOAD button
within five seconds, the device will make the selected preset the
new Live preset. If you do not press the LOAD button, the preset
will not change and the display will return to the original Live preset.
NOTE: The procedure for setting up the Auto Clear function using
the front panel controls differs slightly from the procedure in the
DFR22 Windows software.
1. Ring out the sound system to set any feedback filters that you
want to be a permanent part of the system equalization.
The preset indicator and controls are also used for setting the num-
ber of hours after which each dynamic filter is removed when en-
gaging Auto Clear.
2. Press the Auto Clear button on the DFR22 front panel. The
Auto Clear button will blink. Auto Clear will automatically re-
designate any engaged filters as fixed and the rest as dynam-
ic. For example, if you have five filters set, Auto Clear will des-
ignate those as fixed and will designate the remaining 11 filters
as dynamic.
Front Panel Lockout
When this DIP switch is in the “Unlock” position, all front panel con-
trols are enabled. When it is in the “Lock” position, all front panel
controls are disabled. However, all front panel indicators still func-
tion and show the state of each parameter.
3. The preset indicator will display a flashing [–h]. If you want
Auto Clear to work automatically after a certain number of
hours, you must use the Preset Select buttons to set the num-
ber of hours (1 to 99). Each filter has its own timer, starting from
the time it is set or changed. If you leave the preset indicator
at [–h], Auto Clear will only work on a preset change or power
cycle.
You can override this DIP switch using the DFR22 software and in-
dividually enable or disable each button on the front panel of the
DFR22. Access to the DFR22 via a computer can only be disabled
by setting the appropriate security level through the DFR22 soft-
ware.
4. Press either the LOAD button or the AUTO CLEAR button
again. The AUTO CLEAR LED will glow steadily.
5. When a preset is changed, or if power is turned off and on, the
DFR filters will return to the state they were in when Auto Clear
was engaged. If a number of hours was specified, each dy-
namic filter and change to the depth of each fixed filter will be
removed that many hours after it is set.
Disengaging the Auto Clear Function. To disengage the Auto
Clear function, press the AUTO CLEAR button again. The Auto
Clear LED will go out, and the number of fixed filters and dynamic
filters will reset to eight of each type.
NOTE: Holding the clear button down while Auto Clear is engaged
will only clear the dynamic filters.

DFR22 Theory
Feedback Reduction
No sound system (microphones + mixing/signal processing + power amplifiers/loudspeakers + room acoustics) has an absolutely flat fre-
quency response. When the level of a sound system is increased, the frequencies at which peaks occur will be the first to exceed the feed-
back threshold. The DFR22 attenuates these frequencies, flattening the response of the sound system. The system can then operate at a
higher overall level.
The DFR22 includes Shure’s patented Adaptive Notch Filter algorithm that can discriminate between feedback and non–feedback sounds.
When this algorithm detects feedback, it inserts a shallow, narrow filter into the audio path, reducing gain at the frequency that is feeding back.
(See Figure 3.) This filter is called a notch filter, since it affects a narrow section of the audio spectrum. If the feedback does not stop, the filter
depth is increased. By default, filters in the DFR22 are deployed as HIGH Q filters. As a High Q filter gets deeper, its Q increases up to a Q of
101 (1/70th of an octave). Using the DFR22 software, you can also set filters to deploy as LOW Q. Low Q filters affect a slightly wider range of
frequencies by maintaining a Q of 14.42 (1/10th of an octave) as they deepen. By default, the DFR22 can insert up to 16 notch filters per
channel to reduce feedback.
The DFR22’s feedback reduction algorithm can be used as a tool during system setup and for peace of mind against unexpected feedback.
When setting up a sound system with the DFR22, you can ring out the system by slowly raising the gain while talking into the microphones
until the first frequency begins to feed back. The DFR22 will automatically insert a notch filter to attenuate that frequency. Once the system
stops feeding back, you can further raise the level and repeat the process for additional frequencies. Typically, you can raise the gain 3 – 9 dB
above the level at which feedback first occurred. You should leave some filters available to catch feedback that might occur later, when the
sound system is in use.

EFFECTS OF NOTCH FILTER ON FREQUENCY RESPONSE

DFR22 Limitations
The DFR22 (or any other feedback reduction processor) will not let you to increase gain beyond the physical limits of the sound system. In
most cases, the point of diminishing returns is reached once 5 to 8 notch filters have been set. This is because there are usually only a few
dominant peaks in a system’s frequency response (Figure 4A). In most cases, you can expect a 6 to 9 dB improvement in gain-before-feed-
back. When you are ringing out a system and notice that many frequencies feed back simultaneously, even when you increase the gain
slowly, you have reached the point of diminishing returns. If the system still has insufficient gain before feedback at this point, other changes
must be made to the sound system, such as changing the placement of the microphones and/or loudspeakers.

12 dB and 18 dB Output Pads
Each DFR22 output has a 12 dB pad and an 18 dB pad that can be
engaged through the software interface. Use these pads when con-
necting the DFR22 to lower-level inputs. They cannot be used to
prevent clipping at the output stage of the DFR22
NOTE: The Output meters indicate the signal level present at the
digital-to-analog converters. The 12 and 18 dB pads act upon the
signal after the digital-to-analog converters, so the meters do not
reflect the pads.

CONTROL PIN CONNECTIONS
The control pins on the back of the DFR22 connect to switches, potentiometers, and controller hardware. The Control Input pins can be used
to change presets, adjust gain, and mute channels.
NOTE: Use the DFR22 software to configure the control pins so that they match the attached control hardware. You can also use the software
to assign minimum and maximum gain values for each control, as well as the gain increment for up/down volume control buttons. Refer to the
Control Pin section of the Online Help or to the Online User Guide.
Determining Control Pin Allocations
Table 3. BINARY CONTROL PIN ALLOCATION
When allocating control pins, you should first determine which pins
are to be used for preset control. Any remaining pins can then be
used to adjust gain or to mute channels. The number of pins need-
ed for preset control depends on the type of control hardware used,
as well as the number of presets.
