I've been trying to figure out how to get rid of my ground noise problem...
It's less bad than it used to be... but I still have problems with it. I tried rerouting everything... plugging everything into the same power outlet. Which helped a lot... but I still can't seem to get a totally clear signal when you crank the volume up. Is having a tiny bit of white noise normal? It bugs the shit out of me lol...
Here's what I've done to limit the noise:
- got everything powered by the same outlet.
- unplugged all USB connections.. except audio interface. (helped a lot)
- pay meticulous attention to input volume... to make sure it's maximum instrument signal and minimal noise.
80% of the noise comes from 1 device. The Korg Kaoss Pad 3. When I put this at the end of my chain... the noise/ground problems get out of control. I love this piece of gear... so I don't want to sell it just because of the electrical issues.
Here's a pic of my basic setup... Virus + Motif + SH-201 ---> Mixer ---> MPC ---> Kaoss Pad ---> Audio Interface/Computer.
What would you guys suggest to eliminate the problem?
