Sometimes, when I'm passing a signal through my mixer I hear ... random radio stations - faintly - but they're there, and that is ...well...as you might imagine, a bit stinky for purposes of recording.
Does anyone know what might cause this interference? Is it a grounding problem? Please help! ...Thanks, D. |

What type of signal are you passing through the mixer? Tube amplifiers sometimes pick up radio stations...every now and then I get some Gospel station coming through my amp!

A ground loop, a dry solder joint…
Check all connections (unplug/plug) until you've isolated the offender. Remember it may be inside the mixer… -------------------- Our Classifeds • Nos petites annonces • Terms Of Service / Conditions d'Utilisation • Forum Rules / Règles des Forums • MacMusic.Org & SETI@Home
