Topic: Static when switching to bridge pickup on my fireface 800

I use a strat with my fireface 800 and ever since I got it working when I switch to the bridge pickup I get static and it sounds terrible. When I use my amp with the same cord I get a clear sound so it's definitely the interface. could use some help thx

If you disconnect the guitar from the interface, will the noise persist ?
Did you check with all analog inputs ?

It stops when I disconnect it. I think it is because the bridge pick up doesn't have tone knobs so there is a lot of high frequencies. When I turn my tone knob down with the middle or neck pick up it'll start to buzz again I think its because it can't handle the high's and it just buzzes. And it does not do this on my amp only in my interface.

You could use a microphone to record from the amp
