The MAGICSTOMP is equipped with a highly sophisticated Auto Feedback Reduction
function (AFR) to eliminate feedback (howling).

* In this case, “Feedback” is when a specific frequency produced by the amplifier causes the bass to resonate

uncontrollably, creating a howling sound.

The MAGICSTOMP’s AFR function uses a notch filter, which cuts the frequency that is
causing the feedback, to eliminate feedback. A maximum of five notch filters can be set
and operating at the same time.

The AFR function is only available in patches that have their effect type set to
“AcousticMulti”.
