Well many laptops, like my dell, some toshiba and even hp come with a 3-prong
plug, with grounding for the computer. However nowadays, many models from
toshiba, acer, hp, most of them don't have that ground directly to the plug.
They use the chassy for that purpose. That can help in some occastions, but in
some occasions like these when using usb, it gives you also sorts of problem,
because usb ports sometimes also use the chassy for grounding, so you get
interfearance... Try using an external hub or if you got a PCMCIA usb cardbus,
see if that helps. That's what i had to do sometimes...

That's what I suspect, what's this about grounding with laptops, must admit
i've never used a laptop for serious recording, always stuck to my desktop.
I'm not having much luck reading through the documentation yet anyways.

It could be that, in the case of a laptop it could also be grounding,
though if you put the issue like this, it sounds like the unit itself is at
falt, not the laptop...

Hi DJX,
No sorry I was asking has anyone had this happen with other audio
interfaces.
I'm sure the fault lys with the EMu not her laptop, not sure of the make
but it is off the shelf and, it goes like a rocket, and I can record great with
audacity and sonar using other devices such as her onboard realtec card, just
don't understand why the EMu has to be so difficult.
Somebody said over on midi mag it could be an impedance thing, if so, then
the units going back or, in the bin one of the two, no point over complecating
the issue.

You say this happens with other interfaces? On that same computer? What
motherboard is it? Off the shelf brand system or custom...

Hi guys, I'm training a girl in jfw with JSonar and sonar7,
everythings going well, that is, until we plugged in her EMu 0202 usb audio
interface.
audio plays back through it fine, but when you record all i'm hearing is
a nasty low hum. as far as i'm concerned everything's set right, she's using a
condenser mic and i've tried it both with the mother boards fantom power and
the fantom power box she bought with her mic, ther's no difference.
it's as if there's some very serious interpherence somewhere, has anyone
else experienced this?
even with other usb audio interfaces. i've got a gut feeling its the EMu
not the mic.
thanks
Joe
