I've seen other threads about loud snaps occurring during recording with the DP-24. In the past my recordings were exclusively 16-bit with the DP-24, and I'd get one of these "power surges" or whatever you want to call them only once in a blue moon; too infrequently to even care about. However, I tried recording in 24-bit recently... and while I was recording drums (at which time I have 7 inputs going at once), it snapped so much that I said the hell with it and did the recording over in 16-bit.
I've had problems with the DP-24 before, and just about all of them were solved by formatting the SD card. That panacea doesn't seem to be working with this problem, though. In the other threads people seem to think that the device needs to be grounded, but I don't see why it would need to be grounded for 24-bit recording and not for 16-bit recording. As I mentioned before, this problem only occurs with 24-bit recording... no problems with 16-bit.
I should also mention... this is a snap that occurs ON the tracks that are recording... that is, the dB readout for the seven tracks all of a sudden redline past 0dB during the snap. It's not just just something I hear through the monitors, it's something that gets recorded on the track.
Anyone have any ideas as to what the problem is? Thanks.
