Cut Out The Noise
I am posting here because I have no software problems, it's my AMP.
To run a better show I need to quite down all the buzzing from my speakers. Anyone know of some websites that show devices that isolates these ground loops (the cause of the noise). I guess it would go between the mixer and the amp, right? Thanks, Chris AWare Entertainment |

Re: Cut Out The Noise
A ground loop isolator may help in some instances but it is better to find the source of the ground loop if possible.
In my case I had a system hook-up that was noiseless untill I re-installed everything in a new cart. I had a terible hum. I carefully checked every connection, all were ok. Then I discovered one of the screws used to hold the pre-amp to the cart was touching the case that operate the lights. That was the loop that created the AC hum. So placement of the components, checking all line cords for a good ground connection are important to reduce or eliminate AC hum. To me the best cure is to eliminate the source. Anything else is a work around. |

Re: Cut Out The Noise
I just solved a Dell Laptop's Hum w/ a 3 prong to 2 prong 'Ground-Lift' adapter.
I use an 1/8 Stereo to XLR (M) w/ Shielded Cable to solve my HP Laptop's Hum. This Shielded Cable has solved 3 x 'Desktop/Tower' PC's Hum problems. Just encountered an Equilizer that picked up a radio station (90.1Mhz) -- The EQ had both XLR and 1/4" Inputs -- I was using the XLR -- but ended up adding the 1/4" to it (nothing attached to the other end) and the Radio Station was gone! (I even attempted the Ground Lift) -- Their Engineer (Peavey) suggested that as a solution. And of course the old standard -- 'Dirty-Power' problem - reducing the 8K of the EQ will help -- but the Freqency's that you lose are detrimental to your sound quality. Agree w/ jdavia -- Isolating your problem hum is 1st priority - and the hardest as well! |

I got some, but not much, It's just enough for the folks with "Good ears" to mention.
