Have you tried taking it somewhere else? That will prove beyond reasonable doubt if it's the kit, or your house. Be aware that this kind of thing is outside the scope of many electricians. Hums and noises in audio equipment is rarely covered in any courses, qualifications and training. They can...

Er...... the OP hasn't been back for three years, started this and then vanished. Not much point replying now after all these years?

I think what is happening is you have lost the ground connection somehow? If eddie is left and the other right, then you hear them both, you are hearing the difference of the two. Anything in the middle is being cancelled out, but anything left or right is added together. Quite how this is...

One of the things with any composition, irrespective of genre is rhythm. This does not mean rigid 4 to the bar, and cross rhythms can be exciting - however, you have so many different rhythms going at the same time, it's almost impossible to tap your feet to, let alone dance. The first beat in...

I have had lots of kit from DV247 and i seriously doubt they would sell you a poor system. It looks solid to me.

All that happened is the forum software flagged your posts for unusual activity. In a short time after you joined you triggered the behind the scenes systems that looks at frequency of posts, numbers of posts, IP addresses and it flagged them for moderator approval. I have just woken up, so at...

I mentioned in another topic I was doing my first Hindu recording. A really nice lady turned up and we had a chat. We agreed an experiment was required to find out if what she wanted could be recorded and then progressed in little sections through the year. She had an ipad that produced drones...

Cubase certainly doesn't work like this Dave - in truth I have no idea how it actually works in the mix bus. Most of my individual tracks in cubase are sitting around -3 - and look right in the display, waveform wise. If they are lower than that for some reason (probably less care on the input...

Being ancient enough to remember the 219 and 309 mics when they first came out, at the time, both got good comments for sound, and the 219 was only slagged off for the poor castings and build quality. In the era of cold war Soviet engineering, they were made exactly in the way we imagined. Most...

I have been smiling a little on this topic. Signal generator, audio voltmeter, lots of discussion over different specifications of coaxial cable. Then i look at the huge pile of audio cables in the studio that i have not put away. Apart from one that is turquoise, which I know the impedance of...

I figured I've recorded most things over the years, but this year has been 1st time for a few things - Recording poetry with visuals for use during services at cremations. Bit of a music bed with words to go with images from the person who has died's lifetime. Sombre stuff. Then today a phone...

Always nice to get a happy ending, thanks for the update.

Oddly, they do actually have copyright legislation. They just routinely ignore it. I had a few useful products, then tried to order more and they had crossed a line, breaking one of their own laws. Our frequencies in the UK happen to be used by their military. The factory was banned from...

In radio frequency circuits, the correct impedance is vital, but in audio frequency use, im not sure any of my test gear could detect the difference. In digital audio, the key feature is not voltage, its not rounding off the edges of square waves. I would guess your generator is 50 ohm output...

The snag is some MIDI devices take the MIDI in into the processor and there do the integration and splitting. A sort of software switch - usually on device that allow changes to what is sent to the MIDI thru, to make it a sort of MIDI out/thru combination. Filtering program changes, or limiting...
