    I can hear hum from my combo

    My FM3 when I play at home is plugged into the return jack on a small combo amp (bypassing the cab block and plugging in OUT2) and I hear a faint hum.

    Into the Return intense buzzing

    I've just upgraded to an Axe 3 from the FM3, and with the FM I never had this issue. I'm using the same new XLR to 1/4 to go into the return of my solid state amp. There's a hellish ground type of noise coming from the speakers at all times with the Axe. It's bearable.. sort of like the hum...

    USB Noise in Monitors

    Hi guys, I just got a new Macbook Pro and installed all the Axe FX drivers (Axe FX II mk1). The strangest thing is happening though. Whenever I plug in the USB cable to the computer, I get a ground hum noise from my monitors, even with no signal input from my Axe FX into the interface. I have...

    Hum (Bad earth) at strange times

    During daylight hours i get a 120hz hum on high gain amps and a little hum on clean amps but in the evening its dead silent! In the winter there is no hum after about 5pm once the sun goes down but in the summer i have to wait until about 9pm for it to be silent, its so annoying. It seems to get...

    Axe-Fx III buzzing as an Audio Interface

    Just finished a gig with the axe fx iii where I didn’t even use it to play guitar. It was solely running tracks from a MacBook Pro via usb. We were fighting a buzz the whole night with it. However, intermittently, there was also a “pop” in the buzz. The ground lift took some of the buzz away...

    Is This Noise Floor/Feedback Normal?

    Hello all! I've had my my Ax8 for 2 months now and I've loved every moment of it (except for the conversion rate of USD to CAD). It's come to my attention that there may be an irregularity with my noise floor, more-so with my high gain presets. There is a hum in mid-high range frequencies when...

    Power cable hum

    Ok so i did a lot of tests to come to this conclusion, ran single and multiple pedals of various brands through the fx loop on my PRS MT15. not one single hum sound. Quiet as a winter night. Played with cables and blah blah with the 4CM. Then as i was switching settings under the i/o menu...

    Hiss on FX Loop

    This may have been discussed but I couldn't find it. Asking for a friend (really, I am). He said his FX Loop always has a hiss. Anyone know how to fix that?

    Mesa Boogie Triaxis + Fractal Audio FX8 Mark II Hum and poweramp pops.

    Hi all, I have recently bought Fractal Audtion FX8 Mark II. The idea was to hook it up to Mesa Boogie Triaxis as a controller and effect processor, but I have faced a problem of hum and poweramp pops when going from Stand By/ On and vice versa. I have tried 2 types of 4CM connections. First...

    Suddenly have lots of Input hum?

    I booted up my Axe FX today and noticed that there is a LOT more hum than usual on the front input signal. The input light meter on the front panel shows the bottom green light constantly lit whenever I have a guitar cable plugged in. (see below pic) The patches I have are using the built-in...

    List of amps that have ground loops with FX8

    Every processor has the potential to create ground loops with the amp that it is used with. That said, so far, the FX8 has been much more friendly with amps than most of the other processors I have used. The purpose of this thread is not to point fingers, but to provide a list of amps that may...
