(was RE: FCB 1010) I have found that my DELL CPX laptop will cause considerable noise on audio channels when it PLUGGED into the wall via an AC Adaptor. If it runs on batteries it's much much quieter. When I perform, I make sure it's just running on batteries. That may help....? -----Original Message----- From: Michael LaMeyer [mailto:m.lameyer@verizon.net] Sent: Tuesday, January 28, 2003 2:28 PM To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com Subject: Speaking of hum and/or noise ... (was RE: FCB 1010) I discovered recently, much to my chagrin, that while my motu midi timepeice was connected to my laptop via USB, WHILE the MTP was OFF (but devices connected to the MTP via MIDI cables were ON and patched into my mixer), resulted in my harddrive's activity being audible through my monitors! :-( And no, my laptop was not patched into any other equipment by any other means (audio or otherswise, except maybe the same wall outlet). When I removed the USB cable, the noise stopped immediately, and the noise through the monitors precisely coincided with physically audible hard drive activity. [Laptop]<--USB-->[MTP(OFF)]<--MIDI-->[audio gear]--AUDIO-->[Mixer]--AUDIO-->[Monitors] = hard drive activity noise!!! Yucky.
