Transverse mode coupling instability (TMCI or fast head-tail) is the principal beam current limitation of the VEPP-4M electron-positron collider. For the high-energy physics experiments at the 5.5 GeV energy, the VEPP-4M bunch current should exceed much the TMCI threshold. To suppress transverse beam instabilities, a broadband bunch-by-bunch digital feedback system is developed. The feedback concept is described, the system layout and first beam measurements are presented.
