Buzzing sound when I connect my pc to my dj mi

Hello,
This is driving me nuts. What I'm trying to do is connect my pc through my Audigy 2 NX USB to my dj mixer so I can play tracks through my main system. I know the cords aren't the problem because they are high quality and they work fine in other applications. What could be some of the causes and/or solutions for this buzzing/humming sound that emanates.
The connection starts at my external sound card with an /8" phono plug that splits to two RCA's. These then connect to the back of my mixer into one of the "Line In" ports. Then the mixer signal is sent to a crossover and then to two amps for highs and lows and out to the speakers. It seems like it doesn't always happen so I was hoping someone could give me a checklist of things to examine so I don't waste hours trying everything. Thanks so much.

Hi, I am having the exact same problem as you are when I connect to my band mixer. I get sound but have an annoying hum that won't go away. I know it has to do with the sound card because if I connect to my laptop computer there is no hum or buzz. If you found a solution to this problem I would appreciate it if you could emal me at [email protected] Thank You, Frank

  • No sound when I connect my Macbook pro (2012) to TV via HDMI!

    Hi! I have a problem with the sound when I connect my Macbook pro (bought in 2012) to a Phillips HD TV. The strange thing is that it only happens with some videos (specially youtube videos) but the sound works perfectly with films and audio files I have in my computer, and also when I watch TV online (Eurosport player for instance and other similar applications). It's even stranger because it doesn't happen all the time; last week I tried many times to watch some youtube videos and after unplugging the HDMI cable it seemed to work. As I said, with Eurosport player and many films downloaded in my macbook I don't have this problem (sound is ok all the time), and this is why I'm really confused. I suppose it's not a connection problem, otherwise I wouldn't have sound in any video, right? I've tried two different HDMI's cables but nothing has changed. Please, someone help me, as I can't figure out what's happening. Thank you very much!

    Well Im not sure what the fix is for your problem, but can you please open up the sound preference next time you connect the philips tv, and make sure that sound output is set to hdmi out. Then try and play your video's etc and see if they are affected. 
    I can tell you I get a similar problem when, for example, I have a youtube window open and then connect the external display. The youtube video will not sound out through the cable, however if i refresh the window it works. Also the same when I use bluray player on mac, I have to close it and open it again for the sound to output through the external monitor.

  • There's no sound when i connect to apple tv

    Hi,
    There's no sound when i connect to apple tv from my macbook pro, i bought it 10 days ago and it got the newest updates, and the volume is turned on on the computer.  The sound works when i connect ipad and iphone but not the macbook pro with retina. Does anyone know how to get the sound to work?

    Hi,
    Have you tried Option click on the sound icon in the status bar at top right of your screen? It shows the Output and Input options. Select your Apple TV there.

  • After a successful home button repair, I've got a buzzing sound when I make or receive calls. No problem with the speaker as I can listen to online radio stations and my music.

    After a successful home button repair on my iPhone 4, I've got a buzzing sound when I make or receive calls. No problem with the speaker as I can listen to online radio stations and my music.

    I guess your definition of a "successful repair" is different from most people's.
    If you got it serviced by Apple, take it back to them.
    If you had it serviced by a 3rd party, Apple won't touch it. Take it back to whoeever fixed it for you.

  • TS4006 how do I turn off the "make a sound" feature with find my mac.  I think my macbook was stolen and I don't actually want it to make a sound when someone connects.  I selected the feature and now I want to turn it off.  How can I do it?

      I've read some forums that say I have to overwrite it with a silent sound file but I do not understand how to do this.
    You have to jailbreak your phone to do this, voiding all warranty & support. Just flip the Ring/Silent switch when you send.

  • Buzzing sound when plugging in guitars

    I've been getting this buzzing sound when I plug in any electric guitar or bass into my computer's audio input. This used to happen only when I used my telecaster, and I figured it was just the make, but now it's happening with my other electric and to basses to... it also varies in volume depending on the day.

    Buzzing and hum can be caused by a lot of things. Your tele was probably getting the buzz from a single coil pickup.
    First make sure it's not your guitar cable, it's a long wire just like a antenna and can pickup stray noises from RF and electromagnetic devices.
    Bad ground in your guitar or bad solder joint guitar or cable.
    Move things around lights, speakers, TVs, computers and just about anything electrical can cause noise.

  • Buzzing sound when charging my ipad

    My iPad Mini makes a buzzing sound when charging. What should I do?

    that is not normal.  If you are a very aggresive listener - and hear things that other prople don't - ignore the buzz.  If it is noticable to others as well, take it in for a diagnosis.

  • Getting a buzzing sound when power connector connected

    Hello,
    Everytime I connect my power-connector to my powerbook, i get a buzzing sound, which sounds like something is being written to the hard drive. When I dont have the power-connector connected, the computer buzzing vanishes. Has anyone else experienced this? Does the battery really have to charge that loudly?
    Thanks in advance.

    What type of AC adapter do you have?
    The Aluminum 15-inch and 17-inch MUST use a 65W adapter. Contrary to popular belief, the 45W adapters are not meant for these machines, even though they "work."
    When I plugged a Titanium PowerBook's adapter to my aluminum 15-inch PowerBook, I got a buzzing sound emanating (coming out) from the AC's "brick." The TiBook's adapter was a 45W.
    While connected to the standard 65W adapter, no problems with my aluminum 15-inch PowerBook.
    45W is lower rated and doesn't have enough juice to charge your 15-inch or 17-inch correctly. While it is charging and providing power, it is weaker. You may notice it takes longer to charge your battery when connected to a 45W adapter as opposed to the 65W one.
    Though, playing devil's advocate, some 65W adapters can make that buzzing sound if they are faulty or damaged.
    SIDE NOTE: This makes it seem like the 65W adapter is then, logically, not good to use with the 12-inch PowerBook G4, but it is fine. The original adapter supplied with the 12-inch PowerBook G4s are rated 45W, but they replaced it later down the road with the 65W adapter. (If you get it replaced with AppleCare via mail-in service, you get a 45W replacement part. Though at times, 65W part. If you get it replaced with AppleCare via the retail's Genius Bar, they give you a 65W brick. Also, the compatibility chart for the 65W shows it to work with all aluminum PowerBook G4s).

    I'm not an electrical expert so someone may be able to corroborate my words above, but in better terms. For instance, the reason why the 65W works with the 12-inch PowerBook is that even though it supplies more power, the 12-inch can only receive 45W. On the 15-inch and 17-inch models, it needs 65W, so using a 45W "strains" the AC adapter because it is trying to draw more "power" (the 65W) it needs from a weaker plug. Thus the buzzing noise.
    Like I said, someone else can explain that better, if it doesn't make sense. =)

  • Buzzing sound when connecting my new airport express to bose system

    I recently purchased the new Airport express with the purpose of streaming my music from itunes to my bose system. As soon as I connect my stereo to the Airport express a loud buzzin sound comes out even if the stereo volume is low.
    I've tried the same cable plugged straight from the stereo to my ipad or laptop and this buzzing sound is not there at all. This only happens when I connect the stereo to the new Airport express.
    Please help, before I have no option but to return it.
    The device firmware is up to date.

    Temporarily, plug a pair of headphones into the audio jack on the AirPort Express and test to see if you still hear the buzzing.
    If no, then the Express is operating correctly. The issue is somewhere else....either an intermittent connection in your audio cable, or the jack on the Bose system is defective.
    If you still hear the buzzing when you test the AirPort Express with a pair of headphones, the Express is defective and will need to be returned.

  • Buzzing sound when connecting headphones to Mi

    Quick question (maybe some folks can try this outfor me and let me know their findings):
    I plugged my headphones into my Zen Micro today while I was wearing them (Shure ec2). The player was turned off. I heard a buzzing sound as I inserted the headphone jack, indicating that there was power applied to the jack, even with the player off. Is this normal?
    I'm not overly concerned, just curious.

    Thanks, all.
    Maybe it is related to battery drain. I will say this, though:
    My Zen Micro seems to hold a charge much better tham my first generation iPod. If I left my iPod sit for more than a day or two, it would have to be recharged. Not so with my Zen Micro.

  • Iphone 4 makes an continuous intermittent vibration/buzzing sound when plugged into any of computer's 3 usb ports; does not show in itunes or Windows Vista device manager. No problem charging the phone with other power sources. What's going on?

    This problem happened intermittently in the past but now happens every time I plug in the phone. I suspect it might be a problem with my computer, an Acer Aspire 4530, perhaps with it's charging function via usb ports? The phone makes the same buzzing sound twice when I connect to other power sources, but continues when connected to computer. I have this issue even when the phone is 100% charged.

  • No sound when I connect my Ipod touch to my new ford focus via USB

    When I connect my Ipod to my 2011 Ford Focus it shows as connected and I am able to view all my song however when I press play I get no sound, am I doing something wrong? do I need a new bit of software to make this work?

    Other users have reported similar problems with the latest iOS. I suggest that you use the search function on the right and search the iPod Touch forum for Ford. Use the more option link to restrict the search to the Touch.
