Topic: Line out noise
When using powered monitors through XLR line out, I get noise. This is a recording using an SM57, and this is the power spectrum. Just to clarify, the cutouts in noise are actually happening and not a result of the recording process. The strange thing is, it goes away completely only when I open up Windows Media Player and returns either when I close it or some time (somewhere between 10 mins to an hour) later. Other software such as foobar will not fix it. Opening an ASIO application also has no effect. I'm using driver 1.030 and firmware 203 on Windows 8 x64. Has anybody encountered this type of problem before?
