I am getting some serious noise from my G5. It is the weirdest thing. I got a FURMAN M-8 Power Conditioner to suppress this noisey crap, but nothing is truely helping. Anyone else getting this?
Symptoms:
USB audio interface through my EDIROL PCR-A30. The EDIROL is RCA audio linked up to a Mackie mixer plugged into the same battery backup power source. My G5 is plugged into the same power battery source as this too.
So, the noise....
The headphone jack in the EDIROL gives NO noise at all, when I play Logic tracks.
The noise I speak of is coming out of the mackie mixer here. Mainly the headphone jack, both left and right. HOWEVER, the monitors only have noise out of one side (left).
Noise itself:
I get a hardrive reading sound ONLY when I am in Logic Pro. I have 2 internal drives in my G5. I also get a beeping about once a second. It is the weirdest thing I have heard from a computer. It sounds like a second ticker. That ticker starts RIGHT when my G5 starts up. But the hard drive sound is only when Logic starts up. When I play a track I can almost hear those sounds at low volumes.
Any suggestions on cleaning this noise up?
Thanks all.
