Hey guys. Still fairly new here and to the fractal gear but I have a major hum crisis running my fx8 through my cameron atomica and my modded jcm800. I was hoping someone knows whats going on or what Im doing wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I've tried running it with my full board and also running just the fx8 in 4cm. I am using humbuster cables for the send & return ends on the fx8 and an ebtech hum x at my power source. I've also tried running it through just the front end and not using the loop at all. There is no clipping and if I go in to the global settings and lower either the pre or post gain it does go away to the point that my decimator will kill the remaining hum completely but its gated so hard the tone is unusable.
This rig sounds great but the hum is so bad I could never gig with it mic'd up. I've tried everything and read all the threads concerning ground loops but man, this is brutal and Im not sure if its just doing something stupid or if I've got something wrong. Im ready to throw it out the window. lol
Thanks
