i'm getting fret noise on my new fender active jazz bass (5-string). when i play notes near the bottom of the neck (frets 1-5ish) on the B string, its very difficult to finger the notes without hearing the string vibrate against the fret as i'm pushing it down. i'm not getting a buzz once i've pushed it down, only as i'm pushing it down or lifting up.

I have a Mac G4 with a MOTU 828mkII and a pair of M-Audio BX8 monitors. I'm hearing a faint but steady and repetitive beep (about once per second) from my monitors, and I think I've narrowed down the cause to my two external SATA drives. If I turn either one of the drives off (or both), the beeping stops.

I'm recording some podcasts using Boehringer C1 mic and UB802 mixer with Audacity software.

I'm getting a very quiet vocal sound even with gain up and a lot of noise. Noise reduction gives me a very tinny effect almost immediately.

What can I do to either suppress the noise, or get more vocal sound?

Hello People,

Recently I've recorded a show as a matrix (sbd+audience microphones).
The soundguy used a digital soundboard Yamaha.
It was an acoustic show.
On the loud parts, there are some clicks and clipping (soft) as it was a vinyl.

How could I remove that ? (remove or attenuate)

Ok I have a sytek preamp with the burr browns very smooth going to an AKG solidtube mic nice mic it just seems to have a lot of hum could the power supply be going bad?

...

to rec my trash I am now using Guitar Rig 2, but here is the problem: both with clean or distorted, listening carefully it is possible to notice a "noise" while the instrument is silent.

Any of you folks come across a metallic, high pitch noise in the monitors apparently being caused be LCD displays? Swap them for CRTs & the noise vanishes :?
