Usb pnp audio device no audio7/2/2023 ![]() ![]() If the internal circuitry of the interface and the actual capture or playback circuitry share a common power supply, the operation of the electronics itself cause a distortion to the power being supplied to the capture or playback circuits.Ĭapture and output both rely on a fixed reference level and if this level is not constant, it introduces variations in the actual signal produced. That is the result of bad isolation of either the DAC or the ADC. High-pitched whining is a common problem across many USB devices but there don't seem to be any answers other than "ground loop." It isn't a ground loop. I've tried putting a powered USB hub between it and the computer and that didn't help. It happens on my mac pro when it is running from battery or when plugged in, on a 2006 original Mac Pro, and on my AMD-based desktop, always exactly the same noise, same pitch. This happens when recording with things plugged in and with nothing plugged in with all possible configurations of the box (phantom power, monitoring, gain, line level, etc.) That high-pitched noise is in common between many brands of audio interfaces, as you can hear recordings on Google. I have an M-Audio M-Track, a $100 USB-based audio interface.Īcross all 3 computers I have tried it on, there is a high-pitched whine around 1kHz, similar to the one here: I've yet to find a definitive answer to this, but Google shows hundreds of people asking questions.
