Ok this is kind of weird, whenever a midi message is sent to my delta 1010, (whenever the midi in light flashes), i hear a little click or pop in my monitors. If i turn my mixer off the sound decreases but does not dissapear and the volume on the mixer has no effect on it, so it has nothing to do with the audio out of the keyboard. If i unplug the Delta 1010, the lights still flash and the noise is still there. The whole room is on the same circuit breaker(I know nothing about the electrical stuff, so im just saying all the info i know) so i don't know if that means anything. So if you have any clue to this, please help. Thanks.....Josh
 
Ok, someone else has a similar problem, does anyone have an answer?
 
Sad news: well I think this is an inherent problem with computer recording. The fact is that there is just so much RF interference in your computer that pops and noises like that are difficult to avoid. The good news is once you've recorded your midi the sound shouldn't manifest in playback. This is because the click or pop is generated by the transfer of information from your keyboard to your sound card through that length of cable that connects the two. So once you're in playback the sound should dissappear.
(emphasis on the should).
