Perhaps I'm smoking crack, but I seem to remember from the music-dsp
list that you can just drop the pitch of the input sound a few Hertz
to get rid of feedback. In a digital system this is easily accomplished
by lowering the sample rate slightly right after sampling.

Let's hope i'm not spreading lies and dissemination.
