I have an Emu 0404 usb and whenever the usb is hooked up to any of the usb ports on the computer i get a hummming noise through the speakers. My speakers are Mackie mr5's
I tried using s/PDIF from my auzentech x-fi forte to my 0404 but that doesnt change anything. Do i have to use the usb cable along with the optical or can i just use the optical connection?
When i use only the optical connection the computer doesnt recoognize the emu 0404 is there, which leads me to belive i need to usb cable no matter what.
It could be a ground loop but i have no idea where or how to start fixing that.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
