Tascam M216 ground noise

Hi There!

I have one Tascam M216 mixer with ground noise problem.
My problem is,when I connect the output on my M216 to my RME UCX soundcard input I have ground noise,even buzz sound when i touch the bare metal,or screw on the mixer.

As I best I know all outputs are unbalanced in this mixer,and have 2 prong power cord.

Ground loop isolator in the audio cable did not helped.

After a research I found some information about "tascam grounding mod",but nothing - how to - instruction.

Anybody have idea how to solve this?

Thank You!


Best wishes!

Does that have a separate power supply in a metal case??? If so, there should be some kind of grounding lug.
At least that’s what an M520 has.

I got new suggestion from Tascam forum,I need to try "star grounding" take a ground from the mixer and ground it to the computer chassis.

I will try this and update what happened,thanx!
