Buzzing / crackling sound when trying to record vocals! HELP

Hi,

I'm running Logic Pro 9 on a PowerMac Dual 1.8 ghz with 6 gig of Ram. I'm using an Alesis io2 as my interface, and a Novation Impulse 61 keyboard. Everything runs fine. However, I recently tried to record a vocal and some electro acoustic guitar using the input on my io2. All I seem to get is a buzzing/crackling sound instead of either a vocal or a guitar strum sound?? Is there something that I should be doing re settings, that I'm not? Or could it be a hardware issue? As a vocalist it's becoming frustrating to know that I can't complete my tracks indoors, and yet it could possibly be something simple that needs to be applied.

 

Thanks,

Joe

Hi,

Yep, I've tried it with 3 different mics and as many cables, both in the line and mic inputs. It all goes to my system drive.

I had a feeling that it might be a software issue with my io2. I'm wondering where I can possibly download a software update, if that is indeed what I may need?
