Re: looping with a mic



yes, the shure limits at 96db peak ... quite effective.
and has a great sound ...
i think my/your ears are too precious -> better an akai headrush & a shure in-ear than an echoplex, a "budget" in-ear and a tinitus ... ;-)))

protect your ears, jesús

nobody of the manufacture tell us 'bout that, but i know several
singers, who got a tinitus from inear-monitoring.
and a feedback (mic, acc. git, whatever) while soundcheck is not sooo
rare ...

This is precisely why you don't want one of the "budget" in-ear setups...unless
you can afford to also buy a really fast brick wall limiter to prevent hearing
damage from unexpected signals. Unfortunately, by the time you buy this vital
piece of kit, you've increased the cost of your "budget" setup way beyond the
"budget" category.

The least expensive in-ear system that I know of which incorportates a limiter is
the Shure. I've used it and it sounded ok, but I don't remember it ever hitting
the limiter, but I've read that it's effective. I don't want to risk it.
