I want to amplify my choir, using hanging mics, so that we can perform in larger venues. The set up is obviously very prone to feedback, and not very satisfactory - a well known problem for choirs.
I wondered if I could delay the input (mic) signal by say 20ms, and put in a low cut filter, to reduce my feedback problem.
Puredata has come up from a general google search, and it may be just the tool I need - but clearly I need to invest a lot of time in installing, learning the ropes, playing, etc before I find out.
I'd plan to use a PC's onboard soundcard for a test, then buy a USB low latency audio i/o unit if that worked.
I wonder if anyone could tell me whether I am on to something great, or whether I am wasting my time? I'd hate to go through the agonies of learning about something so new to me, to find that someone could have told me straight away that it won't work!
Thanks for sharing your expertise.
