Audigy SE "hissing sound" on "line in&qu

i just installed my new audigy SE
i have my sirius radio plugged into the "line in" with a brand new stereo cable
when i go to "playback control" and un-check the mute box under "line in" i can hear a hissing sound
it's not really loud but it's loud enough
is that just because this was a cheap $30 card ?
i've tried both the driver that came on the cd and downloaded the latest driver and i get the same hissing sound

i guess i have to take it back and get the better one
any recommendations?
i just need it for 2 channel stereo listening and recording from my Sirius radio

  • Audigy 2 OEM sound quest

    I have a Audigy 2 value oem sound card.
    Do anyone have a audigy 2 value sound card? Do you guys experience hissing noise on this card? Also I feel this card cannot take high level treble signal in music, even with my Sennheiser PX00. This is suppose to be a good head phone. I feel audigy 2 value is even not as good as the onboard sound. Is this because of this particular piece of card I have or it's because audigy 2 value suck?

    Hello
    I have the same card Too.
    i have no problems with hissing. My problems are in very different aspects. With very low level of background effects in some games ( UT2004, Colin Mcrae 04) Infact with all games i have tried on My PC. These effects are weak in EAX console too. All other sounds are good.
    I have problems with Dolby Digital EX decoder too. When I play DVD-Video I've heard sound only from rear speakers. when I check the field to hear rear speakers from rear and side speaker it is no effect.
    I don't know wath to do. I have usin latest di'vers, eax console, and winXP SP2.
    Thanks in advance!!!

  • Hissing sound in audio

    i have a couple of clips where there is alot of whispering going on. in order to hear it, i have to turn the volume up in the audio part of fcp.
    when i do, i hear a hissing sound in the audio. what causes this and how do i remove it.
    thanks.

    If you've got line hum or buzz, a low cutoff filter may help somewhat.
    If the hissing is noise, rather than a low frequency hum, then you're only going to be able to do so much to remove it, because noise cuts across many frequencies and can't really be EQ'd out.
    If you must work with this audio, you can try some version of Digital Intelligent Noise Reduction. Soundtrack Pro has a filter called Nenoiser (one of the "Soundtrack Pro" filters) which you can try.
    The basic principal is that you give the program a sample of pure noise with no signal, and it attempts to surgically remove this from your recording. Play with the settings - you'll be aiming for a happy medium between noise removal and a metallic flanging sound which infects your recording when you apply the affect too heavily.
    Good luck - and hopefully you won't have to do this kind of salvage job too often! There's only so much a humble FCP editor can do with a badly flawed recording....

  • A FIX for error message: When I try to open Snood (it's a game) I get this message.  Not enough memory {Error # :: 0, in sound.cp@line 101  Can you help?

    After years of playing Snood, w/o problems, I started getting this error message, on my iMac, OS 10.5.8,
    with 4 GB of memory when opening Snood:  Not enough memory {Error # :: 0, in sound.cp@line 101
    My MacBook Pro w. Mac OS 10.6.8 did not have this problem.
    Initially I thought that Snood raised its minimum requirement to Mac OS 10.6.
    I had several correspondences with Snood. Their tech support is great. Quick and thorough responses.
    They thought the issue was in Mac's system preferences/ Sound. It was.
    I didn't realize that my sound input and output devices were gone.
    The fix was resetting the PRAM. I found this advice on MacFixIt.com.
    MacFixIt help with volume:   http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-10415659-263.html
    Resetting the PRAM is on Apple support:   http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    My sound (music!) is back, along with Snood. So glad I reset the PRAM before reinstalling the OS software!
    Thank you to Snood, MacFixIt and Apple.
    Happy new year all!

    Good work, nice post/tip, thanks!

  • Hissing sound when connecting with hdmi

    Hello,
    I've recently bought a new lcd tv (Sony Bravia) and I thought I'd try connecting my MacBook Air with a HDMI cable.
    I bought an expensive cable (it was pretty much the only one I could find "there and then") and also bought a "mini displayport to hdmi" adaptor from Amazon (like the one advertised on the Apple store online). I also connected audio (with a standard RCA audio cable) from the out to my amplifier.
    Technically, the connection works but there is a hissing sound (a high pitched continuous noise). When I disconnect one of the two cables (ie: HDMI or audio) the hissing sound goes away. And I've tried a different audio cable and the problem is the same.
    I appreciate this may be a difficult one to troubleshoot remotely but any insight would be appreciated!
    thanks
    PS: Front Row looks fabulous on a big display!

    One possibility is that you open your computer and the television channel first. To some TV, it's no use. Maybe you can first to open the computer until after the TV showing. HDMI generally doesn't support hot swap. BTW, you can also install a *[usb to hdmi adapter|http://www.espow.com/wholesale-usb-multi-display-adapter-for-computer-a dd-on-a-second-monitor.html]*. So, if it's not OK, you can use the dvi to hdmi converter.
    Sometimes, this happens in DisplayPort that have HDMI or VGA. This is from the audio chip and high-frequency sound. en,,it was a hard struggle to get a hdmi life. In this condition, we can use a *[usb to hdmi dvi adapter|http://www.espow.com/wholesale-usb-multi-display-adapter-for-computer-a dd-on-a-second-monitor.html]* to make it.

  • Hissing sound with wi-fi and power adapter connected

    This is quite annoying - when the power adapter is connected and I have a w-fi connection to the internet I get intermittent 'hissing' sounds - however when I remove the lead and run off the battery this no longer happens. Does this happen to anyone else?!

    What problem are you having ?
    If you have the 'this iPad hasn't been backed up' message on screen and you can't remove it try a soft-resetave you tried a reset ? : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    When the iPad has restarted you can then force a backup via Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Back Up Now

  • My sound always makes this funny like hissing sound is that because my screen is cracked?

    will some one plz help me find out wether its because my screen is cracked or weather its just the general ipod thats making the sound do a funny kinda hissing sound when i have the volume no matter if its my musicc or wot it does it
    some one please explain to me it would be a big help i dont fancy payin for screen fixin to fix ma sound and it been nothig to do with that.

    First of, are you playing this through a pair of earphones? If yes, your pair of earphones is probably busted already. Try playing with the plug and see if moving or positioning it would eliminate the hissing sound.
    It can also be a matter with the tracks you have especially if they are not original content as there could be ones with low quality which in turn gives some weird sound you hear on the background.

  • Hissing sound through HDMI

    Recently, I noticed a hissing noise when I connected my headphones through the audio out of my monitor. That monitor is connected via HDMI on the GPU. Even if I set the volume to zero, I can still hear it. But when I connect the earphone through the Front Panel Audio or the back on the board, no hissing noise is heard. I also tried this with my Inno3D GeForce GT 730 (HDMI) but it didn't have any hissing sound.. I suspect it was the GPU at fault. Any suggestion? I can still ask for a full product replacement.

    Apologies if I didn't have the time to read the rules and posting guides.

  • Why do I get hissing sound when charging my Macbook Pro

    Hello!
    Few weeks ago i noticed that on my speakers there is this hissing sound/noise coming out, but eventually it stopped. But now I changed speakers to active studio monitors and I hear hissing very well, the hissing noice is just horrible and i noticed that it only happens when I am charging my Macbook.
    And one more strange thing, hissing noise doesn't happen when i use my headphones.
    Has anybody encountered

    I suggest an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a free evaluation.
    Perhaps an Apple Hardware Test may provide a clue:

  • Fizzy and hissing sound when using earphone...

    I have a Macbook Pro 13 inches 2009. I use my earphone to listen music. However, when I don't play music, I can hear a fizzy and hissing sound from my earphone. I tried to use another one but there is still fizzy and hissing sound when no music is playing. I can hear that even clearer when my room is silent. I feel really annoyed about that sound.
    If anyone knows how to fix it, please let me know. Any helps are appreciating...
    Thanks.
    Vu Dinh
    P/S: I'm not sure if it's a software issue or hardware issue.

    The problem is when I dont play music, there is still fizzy and hissing sound on my earphone. Only when I play music, the music is louder than that sound so I just hear music in that time. However, when I dont play music, there is always fizzy sound on my earphone. I already said it always happens when I put my earphone jack on Macbook Pro.
    I want to know if there are any ways to fix that... It's really annoying. It's not silent at all even there is no music. Always a fizzy sound on my earphone.

  • Carbon X120A7 not rebooting -hissing sound and blinking tool bar and keys

    I have a one month old Carbox X1 that has suddenly working. It starts and gives a message of error and the screen goes blank leaving the tool bar and keyboard blinking with a hissing sound. What is going on?? I have an urgent project due I need it to work. Please help

    Might not make any difference but would clicking this help if it isn't?
    Also, I wonder if it is Pandora or other 3rd party apps that are interfering or taking over.

  • HT4528 I have an IPhone5.  The screen goes blue, then B & W snow, then makes a short hissing sound and shuts off.  It did it 3-4 times and now it will not turn on.  Should I try to have it serviced or replace it?

  • GarageBand 08 "hissing" sound

    I recorded a vocal narrative (no effects) using a Logitech microphone. Sounds good when I play it back in GarageBand by itself. But when I add a mp3 file with background music an audible "hiss" seems to appear. You can still hear the vocal fine - but the hissing sound is distracting. I can't seem to eliminate the hiss.
    The hiss is not present when the vocal file is played by itself, nor is the hiss present when the mp3 music file is played. But when you put them together the hiss appears. I have tried to lower the upper hz ranges with the equalizer, but this really hasn't helped. Any suggestions on how I could eliminate the hiss?

    OK thanks for responding - I tried it with the record enabled "off" for both tracks and "on" for both tracks. (I think you mean the small red dot that you can turn off and on within the individual track) I still have the hiss. Also, the hiss is present when you export/share it out iTunes or iMovie. Any other ideas would be appreciated. I just can't seem to understand why the hiss only appears once I put the tracks together? It is really odd.

  • Won´t boot up and loud hissing sound when battery is in.

    Hello, I have a powerbook g4 and leopard installed. The other day the computer started making a loud hissing sound and had a black screen(it looks like is in sleep mode) won´t come out of the apparent sleep mode. If I take the battery out it stops making the loud hissing sound but everything else remains the same. Also the light in the power cord is acting werid. The only thing I got to do was to finally turn the computer off and tried for about 3 days to charge it but the powercord wasn´t working so finally it worked(after 3 days) it almost booted up but then went into the sleep coma again. (the light indicator in the cable turned off but after taking out and put in it back in the light turned on. Please help, I can´t find any good answer for this!?? thanks everyone in advance.

    I just went over and looked at the computer and it seems that is making the hissing noise again even with the battery out.

  • After updating my iPhone 5 to ios 6.1 I'm getting a hissing sound during calls. Any one else having this problem? Need help

    After updating my iPhone 5 to ios 6.1 I'm getting a hissing sound during calls. Any one else having this problem? Need help

    I am having the same issue. I am updating to 6.1.3 to see if that helps. It is really annoying. It seems to vibrate as well as hiss on my ear piece speaker while on a call. I keep looking at the phone thinking maybe another call is coming in.
