I have a humming or buzzing sound.
Tried two guitars, 2 cables, and switching back and for from headphone to monitor.
The guitars.. one is much worse than the other. Cheap one is quieter..Seymore Duncan hummbucker. The other guitar is a good one... relatively hot custom EVH alinco 2 & 3.
Cables.. main one is a monster cable, one a fractal audio cable short one for the EV-1.
There's a very low hum when the cable is plugged into the 3 and the other end into nothing, if I grip it in my hand.. it becomes quiet.. basically dead silent..just a ever so faint hint of white noise from the headphones. So cable is good, and I understand the headphone white noise.
When I plug the cable into the guitar, I get two different types of buzzing.
HUM 1 . Guitar 2 custom EVH alnico 2&3 Humbuckers pickups and a nice guitar.Like a 60 mhz buzz.. when I palm mute it, it goes away. When I touch the cable head at the guitar while not touching the guitar as.. or any piece on metal anywhere on the guitar it goes away, strings included. Hum 2 still exist ( see note)
HUM 1 Guitar 2 Seymour Duncan humbuckers and a old cheap guitar. I don't have the 60 mhz buzz and touching cables and metal on the guitar are not necessary. Hum 2 still exists.
Hum 1 must be my guitar... maybe something is not grounded? Or is it a hot pickup doing it. Sort of baffled I can just touch the cable head near the guitar and it goes away. Probable a ground issue.
Hum2 Increases when I increase the out 1 non front dial. When I play guitar, it doesn't go away. A light pick on the string and I hear it.. I need to hit the string st probable 40% of my typical force to get above the hum.
It changes in severity with each present. Some presets, it's very faint.
I am plugged into a power conditioner. Move my cell phone 50 ft away. Separated my guitar from the axe by 10ft. Moved away from the axe with headphones on 8 ft..doesn't change
