Hi all, first post and already starting with problems!

I recently moved from Canada to the Czech republic going from 120v/50hz to 230v/60hz (correct me if I'm wrong on the frequencies). Regardless, I brought over my pair of event 20/20bas monitors that I simply couldn't let go hoping to get to use them here. I bought the following step up/down transformer:

sorry if this has been asked, but I'm having problems searching.

i read a book that said all rooms have two electric lines so you can avoid having lights, appliances, etc on the same line as your audio equipment. i checked the diagram on the fuse breaker in my house and all rooms seem to be one line, and so my amps are buzzing bad.

Hi,

Does anyone know of a plugin hum eliminator for cubase?
I know that Pro Tools has one, I think it's called the
Hum Detective. I tried Googling, but couldn't find anything.

Thanks,

Whats the best way of removing electrical hums in the studio?

A couple of things I have noticed in mine lately is a hiss from one of my preamps in the Foldback/headphone channel

and i also have 2 channels coming off the back of my computer (soundcard) to the desk.. there is unwanted noise there too..

Any ideas?

:( This is my first post and reading all the posts here suggest that there are may pros contributing their excellence.

I have just embarked on a digital recording project and obtained a M-Audio 1010LT PCI card. I will be using this (and Ableton Live) on an HP Win XP SP2 machine with plenty of memory and a large drive. I actually have 2 questions:

hey buddies,

erm...wat's ur opinion to solve this problem?is it de pick up problem?i'm using YAMAHA LLX6 oso facing this Low Hum problem.

Hi all,
I was wondering what makes a mic hum when I approach the swtiches, and pick up low level background hum that no other mics do.

I've been able to rule out ground loops, and I am using very well shielded cable. The body is screwed together very tighly, so there's no problem there.

Oh yeah, the mic also needs to be grounded to stop the hum getting very bad.

Hey RO'ers, I am looking for advice on how to get rid of the humming noise coming from my monitors. I don't know if it is because the monitors are too close to the rest of the equipment or if it is something else.

I'm have a Gateway laptop, using the Lexicon Omega for my I/O. I've used it for a while, including an Audigy 2 ZS PCMCIA card before that, both no problems. Then I decided I needed more storage so I bought a 300 GB Seagate external HD. Now I'm getting a hum. The hum gets louder if I turn the output level anywhere off of the half-way mark.

I know someone who has some audio, that can't be redone, and there's bad humming throughout it. I dunno what he used to record it, but is there some things he can do to fix this? Thanks

And also, is there ways to fix this if he already tried running filters through it?
