DS4 USB 3.5 mm Jack buzzing and disconnecting.

Every time I plug in my headphones I have to adjust the 3.5mm Jack to stay in a certain position to stop disconnecting and  buzzing.I tested the headphones on my tablet and they don't do that.I think my DS4 is broken.

Yep, that would be it...... Shame you didn't mention that to start with

  • Speaker buzz and interference in Premiere Pro and Audition CS5.5

    Several months ago I upgraded to an Asus G10AC PC for my editing. When I first started using the Asus I was using a basic 5.1 computer speaker system plugged in using the 3.5mm headphone jack for sound. I noticed right away that when I opened Premiere Pro or Audition I would hear some interference similar to when you put a cell phone too close to a wireless transmitter (buzzing and beeps). I assume it is picking up something from the hard drive(s) or MoBo. The noises didn't show up in my exported files so I lived with it.
    Recently I added a Behringer Q802USB mixer and some PreSonus monitors for more accurate audio editing. So now all of my audio is more defined and easier to hear accurately. The beeps and buzzing don't seem to be an issue but what I hear now is a constant high pitch sound from both speakers but more from the left than the right.
    But what is strange is that the high pitch sound is only there when either of the 2 Adobe windows (Pp or Au) are active. I can use windows explorer, QuickTime and windows movie maker to play audio and video files and they are clean. As soon as I click away from the Adobe windows the high pitch sound disappears. I can even RAM preview clips in After Effects and the sound is clean. When I plug in headphones to the PC I constantly hear the buzzes and beeps no matter what is open, but the high pitch sound isn't there or it is at least not as noticeable. I also tried disconnecting the USB cable from the mixer and reconnected using a 1/8" male from the headphone that splits the signal out to 2 1/4" male outputs to connect to an input on the mixer. Same noise issue all around so from what I can tell the issue isn't the USB connection or the mixer.
    To double check that it wasn't a mixer issue I connected it to my Sager laptop using the USB and everything is crystal clear no matter what I play the audio on (Pp, Au, windows explorer, YouTube, QT, etc). This laptop is usually connected to the same mixer but using one of the headphone cables that splits to the 2 1/4" males.
    This sounds like an issue with my PC but I wanted to check here since the issue only occurs when Pp or Au are open. Is there something that these 2 programs gain access to that the other sound producing programs do not? And to clarify, it isn't only when playing audio in these 2 programs. The noise begins as either program begins loading and is constant until I click to a different window. Sometime I actually have to close out of Pp to get it to stop. Could it have something to do with these 2 programs having access to the microphone function? And I am not tech savvy enough to understand if the 2 Adobe programs use the same drivers as the other programs that do not have the sound issue.
    I briefly attempted trouble shooting the audio drivers but the computer says that I my driver is up to date. I tried manually replacing it and switching to ASIO but couldn't get it to accept it so I went back to the original driver and setting.
    Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
    Cole

    Thanks for the fast response Richard.
    I thought that too but what is causing it to only happen when engaging these 2 programs? It seems if it was a grounding problem it would be universal for all programs that produce sound. It is only when these 2 programs begin loading and while they are selected.
    Do you have any theory about what component they are accessing that brings this interference into play? At first I figured it must be sound card related but wouldn't the other programs that produce sound also call upon the same hardware and drivers when playing audio?

  • When i plugged my ipod into the computer it started to make buzzing and screeching noises. It became hot so i removed it and then the screen froze while it continued to make these noises. I have never had anything like this happen.

    When i plugged my ipod into the computer it started to make buzzing and screeching noises. It became hot so i removed it and then the screen froze while it continued to make these noises. I have never had anything like this happen. (never gotten it wet or had it exposed to extreme temperatures) It is also unresponsive to any buttons on the ipod and it didn't show up when i plugged it into my computer. What do I do? Also if it is unfixable could i get a free one from apple?

    Hi WiZKiD8499,
    If you are able to charge your iPhone fine from the wall charger but are having intermittent charging issues when connected to your computer (both with the same cable), you may want to try another USB port directly on the computer and/or make sure that you are using a high powered USB 2.0 port, as outlined in the following article:

  • USB alternative to audio jack on T530?

    The audio combo jack on my T530 has had connection problems for some time - with any kind of listening device (headphones, earbuds, mini-speakers, etc.). The built-in speakers have no problem, other than being standard computer speakers and therefore not high quality. Is there a small but decent USB alternative to the jack? I work in audiobooks and have so far only been able to route playback through my Focusrite audio interface, which IS usb and portable, but still too large to lug around. Suggestions welcome!

  • Buzzing and Echo Sound After Recording

    Hello,
    I am hearing a buzzing and echo sound in the background after I record a project on Captivate 4.  I am using a USB DYNEX Microphone that is connected to the Laptop.  Adjusted the Volumne in Captivate but does not elemintate the background noise.  Any suggestions???
    Thanks

    Have you looked for environmental noises, both electrical and audible?
    Here are some possible culprits for induced electrical "buzz" or "hum." These "noises" are actually created by electrical interference in the recording equipment, and don't become apparent until playback:
    Fluorescent strip lighting.
    AC power cords near the microphone cable.
    Mic cable near CRT displays.
    Other electronic devices where you are recording.
    If you're using a laptop, I find I have better luck running on battery power when recording, though I'm not clear if this is because of the power source, or because power-save features kick in that make the machine quieter.
    Another possibility is real audio noise that you mentally tune out when you're in the room, but hear when you listen to playback. Some ones I've run into:
    Ventilation noise.  Particularly if you're recording in a building where you work all the time, you don't hear the ventilation system unless you really stop to listen for it.
    Small electronic devices -- fans, projectors, etc. that might be in the room.
    Also, play around with microphone position relative to your mouth; it's possible that the source of the racket is your own breath!!
    Good luck!!

  • Buzz and noise on speakers

    Hi. I have a X505-860 and I'm thinking outstanding. But I'm having two problem with my audio. The first is that the speakers make a lot of buzz and noises like TV, and old speakers. The another problem is that the sound is too low with the speakers. When I put the headphone is perfect the sound, but external speakers sucks. Is there some way do fix that? Is a problem of equalization? Or I have to call Toshiba?
    Dyego

    This can happen if the software is "allowing"
    more power to be accessed by the USB ports..
    This isn't quite accurate. USB devices can ask for power, up to 2.5 watts (500 ma @ 5 volts), from a USB port. Software can query the device for its power requirements & shut down the power to it (& warn you it is doing so) if it exceeds that limit. However, the hardware in Macs themselves (& essentially all other computers) also have a number of power limiting circuits, independent of the OS software, that make it just about impossible for the software to "allow" more power than this to be drawn from the port. (If they didn't, they would not meet most of the world's safety codes.)
    Moreover, if your USB speakers (or any other USB device) requires more than 2.5 watts, it would never have been bus powered under any version of the OS, assuming it meets USB standards (IOW, displays an official USB logo & is not itself defective).
    If the technician is telling you something different, it might be a good idea to find a more qualified one, or at least get a second opinion.

  • Can I connect a 4 TB USB drive to the airport extreme and use it as a network drive for Time Machine

    Can I connect a 4 TB USB drive to the airport extreme and use it as a network drive for Time Machine

    Yes, if the drive is formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
    The USB port on the Time Capsule is under powered, so you may need use a powered USB hub with the 4 TB drive...even if it has its own power supply.

    You will need to install an App like Print Central on the iPad to try to print to the printer. It will allow you to print to most printers. Check with their support folks if you need more info.

    This would be wonderful but, the older firmware makes the USB Sound Blaster Audigy 2 NX, unresponsi've in -+ 5 minutes.
    All Programs are unresponsi've after 5 minutes, if I unplug the USB Sound Blaster Audigy 2 NX my programs start to respond again. Resetting the firmware to factory default (v..05050), I get no problems, except that the USB Sound Blaster Audigy 2 NX response on a USB 2.0 port as if it'ss plug-in on a USB . Port.
    I don?t have any problems with any other USB 2.0 hardware! They all work fine and I DON?T get any error telling me I would get High speed if the hardware was plug into a USB 2.0 plug. BECAUSE IT IS A USB 2.0 PORT!
    The problem lies in the with in the firmware.
    Would you please update the firmware.
    In Creative Device Control the USB Connection Speed box.
    Your device is Connected at:
    Is grey, I can't set any thing. Why not?
    Suggestion One:
    For technical Personal only!
    The drivers Creative releases are based on the Extigy.
    If I look at the drivers you write for the PCI range (Audigy, Audigy 2 and Audigy 4 Series) they are better.
    The Sound Blaster USB Range, Especially the Audigy Range can do so much more with the right drivers.
    I suggested, you create a driver for the USB Composite Device. That emulates a PCI slot. This would allow the External Sound Blaster USB range to install your new and very advance PCI drivers.

    By adding in wdma_emu.inf

    ; EMU0K chip (SBLi've!, APS)
    %EMU0K.DeviceDesc%=EMU0K_Device,PCI\VEN_02&DEV_000 2&CC_04000
    ; USB range (SBLi've!, APS)
    %USB.DeviceDesc%=USB_Device,PCI\VEN_02&DEVXXXXXXXX XXXXX
    Adding in the Data folder, a data file for the USB Sound Blasters Audigy 2 NX would be ctp0300w.dat this tells the drivers which kind of features the SB0300 has.
    It should detect if it'ss a Creative EMU0K Audio Processor (WDM)
    or Creative Audigy Audio Processor (WDM)
    If this is not possible at the very most I would like the following software to work with USB Sound Blaster range.
    Audio Console
    AudioHQ
    CtPanel.exe
    EAX Editor
    Speaker Calibrator?
    THX Setup Console (This is only software rendering, not limited to selected devices works fine on my Sound Blaster Li've! Value, CT4832)
    CTASIO(ASIO 2.0 or .0, The Sound Blaster Audigy 2 NX Support ASIO, You just didn?t include it in the drivers)
    In EAX Console under Effects tab.
    There is only a Environment
    I?m sure that the Sound Blaster Audigy 2 NX can support.
    - Environment
    - Advanced EQ
    -Special FX
    -Custom
    -Studio
    -Karoake
    Again you based it on the old Extigy drivers it'ss the hardware is not limited!
    In Surround Sound Mixer under the Advance Button there should be a Balance/Fade window. Again there is no such window because you base it on the Extigy.
    In Speakers Settings under Speaker Selection You should add the marker for Synchronize with Control Panel. (This is only a Drivers limitation)
    The New PCI Drivers add branding in Microsoft Volume Control and in Sound and Audio Device Properties.
    Can you add Branding for the Sound Blaster USB.
    In
    Sound and Audio Devices Properties
    Volume (Tab)
    Speaker Settings (Window)
    Speaker Volume? (Button)
    If you click on the Speaker Volume? button. It should give you the option to set Channel to Channel 8, currently there are only Channel and Channel 2

    Advance? (Button)
    Effects (Tab)
    Effects: (Drop down)
    Is Empty there is only None. Can you please all of the EAX Advanced HD Effects
    To conclude would you please improve the Sound Blaster USB Driver! Or just create a new range driver for the Sound Blaster USB!

    This would require renaming the files on the computer.
    iTunes is not going to do this magically when copying files to the flash drive, iTunes does not even copy/sync files to a flash drive.
