Mouse/ speaker buzz/ scrolling
Hey...long time problem...hoping for a solution finally...
I record guitar and whatnot on the PC...so it's a DAW, for those who know...anyway...my basic specs are in my spec below...but to summarise:
Windows 7 64
x58a-ud3r mobo
6g ram
LG Flatron lcd
Soundcard is a Presonus Firebox FIREWIRE external soundcard
I have to powered speakers, Mackie MR5's hooked to the output of the Firebox.
The problem is that the speakers constantly emit a buzzing/ fizz/ whine/ electrical disturbance type sound when idle. In addition, scrolling of the mouse, websites with lots of moving gfx, cpu activity makes the speakers buzz like a bee.
Grounding seems an unlikely issue.
When I unplug the firewire connection between the PC and the soundcard, the speakers idle perfectly quietly...with only the normal faint, faint sounds they should have when idle.
As soon as the firewire cable is plugged in...buzzzzzz
Buzzing predominately from the tweeter cones of each speaker.
Anyone tackle this issue before?
Any help?
thanks
