This might be a crazy question. But does anyone ever mic a speaker cabinet for things other than a guitar? lets say i wanted to mic a speaker and run vocals through it again or lets say a hi hat or snare to get a different sound. Is that something that is ever done? or am i just crazy?

Interesting. i am a newbie in terms of reading the signals themselves. i looked up EMI meters on youtube and i saw the real pro guys have like thousand dollar kits to detect different type of things. that when i said forget buying a meter not worth it and they alway said you wont get much out of...

man its just clean! and i notice i get more quality gain. too

guys just setup the rig again in the old place look at how silent this thing is. its stupid silent and thats boosting the high mids and highs significantly and nothing! fing amazing. At the other place even when the noise would be gone the noise floor wouldnt be this low. Amazing. Something over...

i was thinking of getting the LR brags pickup even though this dimarzio is also humbucker stacked like the Brags is. i am taking my rig to where is was setup initially and leaving it there. if it still makes noise there i will record it and send a snip although i dont think it will. Either way...

i will test the reading with buzz and when the buzz is gone to see any difference. Will post when i have the numbers

I will go ahead and get one.

It seems like its in 3 to 5 hour blocks of time on and off

nevermind the buzz is back

I am going to take advantage of my buzz free time lol will be on later today. i think i will get a few hours until around 3 or 4 today

So something is working then not working then working again? why would the buzz go on and off?

Just incase you need some education see the below video:

Dont have another guitar to test on. i just told you it was dead silent in another apartment. EMI is not a factor outside the apartment? you do not know what you are talking about

for example right now i just checked and the noise is gone lol. i just hear the normal noise floor from my rig which is very low and normal and i am totally okay with. When that high buzz noise comes on it really kills the session and makes the track ugly!

Actually i had my same exact setup in another apartment before i moved and it was dead silent. I only recently moved my rig to this apartment. So this should help you guys narrow down the ideas. It really isnt my rig or the pickup or the guitar or any grounding on any of my gear at all...

Again i have followed the source to the wall lol. I cant investigate further its not in my apartment. I would say its traveling through the powerline or in my neighbors apartment. i can really only block at this point. I dont think its from a wall wart either nor my pc. I tried putting the...

I have tried that and turned off as many things in the direction it is coming from (That i can control of course) The only other thing i can do is just shut the breakers off but then how would i track without my gear powered? Theres nothing else in my control that i can shut off that could be...

Yup looks like he knows his stuff. He understands how buildings function holistically. Its a tough task. Sometimes you cant control where it is coming from as it may not even be in your suite. In the meantime i will continute to track at buzz free times and see about doing some sheilding to my...

I tried under the pickup and didnt have the same effect. When the sheet is over top of it is when it stops the noise. When i disconnect the 3.5MM plug it just does the normal buzz like any guitar cord would do when disconnected. when connected i put the shield over the string path and the buzz...

Its an acoustic guitar with a dimarzio acoustic sound hole pickup. Its a great sounding pickup just getting this issue. I can place the sheet metal somewhere else. where should i place it? I would have to take out the pickup and test putting it behind it to see what happens. The sheet metal is...
