Loud feedback noise on M

Several months ago I had purchased one of those RadioShack Hedsets.
When I use the mic I always have loud screeching (feedback) type noise when I turn the volume on my speakers up and I don't know what to do.
I currently have Soundblaster augidy SE

KevinPhomma,
Can you mute microphone as a playback source? (Some cards have a "Record without Monitoring" option for this purpose.) Also a directional microphone might reduce the feedback.

  • Feedback noise from iOS4 upgrade to 3GS

    Dear Apple marketing folks, we appreciate your developers, but please get us a patch for this iOS4 issue ASAP. Think of the bad (and very public) experiences that are now happening daily with iPhones randomly making loud screeching noises in work places, cafes, buses, subways, etc.. Talk about bad word-of-mouth marketing. Ouch. The Android marketing people are going to have a field day with this one if it does not get fixed quick.
    The recent upgrade to iOS4 on my otherwise great 3GS is causing random, loud, high-pitched, feedback noises to emit every time the phone makes a noise for anything else (reminder ding, etc).
    A phone call with tech support only got me a suggestion to do a Restore via iTunes and confirmation that they know this is trending up. The Restore did not work.

    Lots of blog mentions on the issue just like this one from iLounge: http://bit.ly/eA1rU.

    I have had the same issue following my upgrade to iOS4. In my opinion these issues are uncharacteristic of Apple. I have had no issues with this phone or any other Apple product that I have used until I made the upgrade to iOS4. I agree with the other posts that something needs to be done about this (and other iOS4 issue) ASAP. PLEASE post any tricks that you have found (besides restores, and reboots which I have already done without lasting success)to work on a more permanent basis.

  • I can record only loud white noise

    i have tried to use both a digi 002r and m-audio fast track pro as audio i/o. when i try to enable the input button or record anything on a track i get only loud white noise. seems like a feedback loop in the record and playback but i am baffled. when i tried recording, using only the internal mac ins and outs, i had no trouble.
    i am a pro tools guy trying logic for the first time.

    This is interesting... The same thing happened to my MOTU 828 mkII. It happened right after I installed the Logic 8 upgrade. To verify it wasnt just the interface dieing, I opened up some standalone programs (absynth, and reaktor) and checked their inputs. The same thing happened on those inputs, fullscale nasty digital noise... so I figured it was the interface, and I sent it out for repair. I just got it back, and everything is working fine.
    But this is very curious this happened to you, using different interfaces... Do you have any standalone software with audio in? Try checking that.

  • Really Annoying Feedback Noise

    Does anyone get feedback on speakers of all types when their iPhone is on and near? I, so far, have received feedback noise on both home, work, car, and conference call telephone speakers. It appears to start when the phone attempts to wirelessly sync up to receive new email and text messages. This has become a problem because I can't seem to listen to the music on the phone without getting extremely loud feedback. And it was embarrassing during a conference call when the phone was causing the feedback within the phone overpowering those speaking on the phone. Any suggestions are helpful.

    Though maybe not entirely identical I have noticed RF interference and also iPhone speaker crackling while playing music at home(I have a Wi-FI network). I was listening to a song out of the built-in iPhone speaker and all of sudden had terrible crackling - so while the song continued to play I turned off the Wi-FI connection on the phone and it after a minute the song quality went back to normal. So was this RF interference, WI-FI related or the fact the iPhone was going out to get new emails?

  • Ichat loud hissing noise

    I was chatting this evening on a latest version MacBook with another user who has the same setup. I was in Barrie and the other person in Toronto. Both of us were complaining about a terrible hissing sound during the chat. I have never had a problem with a sound like this when playing music or watching a clip from the net on the MacBook. Any suggestions why this loud screeching hissing noise exists and how to get rid of it?

    I'm experiencing the exact same problem (though I'm not hearing a hissing, more like, as my brother-in-law described it, the sound of someone breaking wine glasses continually). I tried the iChat for this first time this evening with my brother-in-law, sister and their daughter, and we were getting a pretty horrible feedback noise. While it may work as a solution, using external speakers and/or microphones would seem to be counter to the whole idea of using a laptop. It shouldn't be necessary to lug such things around with you just to get good sound quality in the iChat. Headphones (another possible solution I read about) are impractical if you're having a conversation with more than one person at the other end.
    I'll check out the "Volume" settings in System Preferences and see if that helps things, however.
    Now, the video was great!

  • Laserjet Pro m177fw makes loud clicking noise and then is stuck initializing, won't print

    Hi,
    Had this printer delivered today, it looks awesome, but when I turn it on, it has a loud clicking noise (like something trying to turn, but not grabbing a gear or something inside, this happens immediately upon turning it on, and then it's stuck in Initializing.  If I go into the home button and go to system settings, then reports then configuration report, I get a big green check.  I did notice that on the right most menu item, there is a yellow warning, and it doesn't seem to be able to get the detail on the ink levels of the colours.  I took out the ink cartridge and looked at it and it doesn't look like there is something to pull out to activate the cartridge (there was in my really old HP Laser jet).
    What am I missing on setup?  I've read the instructions twice and also hard powered off the printer by pulling the plug and waiting a minute to plug it back in.  Same thing occurs, thanks!

    Please follow these steps to take the cartridges out.
    Touch the Icon and indicated on the pic.
    It will come up with a screen which looks like this
    Touch on the black cartridge icon and it will display " moving black cartridge to front".
    Now open the cartridge door and remove the black toner.
    Close the door and touch the cyan and it will move it to the front and you will have to open the door again and take the cyan out, close the door again and repert the process for magenta and yellow.
    And when you want to reinstall them the same steps have to be repeated.
    Do let me know the results

  • HP Laserjet P1005 printer makes a loud rasping noise as soon as it is turned on

    My Laserjet P1005 printer makes a loud rasping noise as soon as it is turned on. The noise stops when the top cover is opened, but starts again when the cover is closed. The printer has been used sparingly at home and from a cursory inspection, the rollers seem to be okay. Can anyone help me to solve this problem? Thank you!

    Hi @Dunn1 ,
    I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publically post ( serial numbers and case details).

  • Mac Pro will not boot, constant loud fan noise and nothing else

    hello,
    earlier tonight,i put my mac pro on sleep, then later on, when i wanted to take it off sleep and use it, it made the loud fan noise, which it always does but goes away, but this time it the fan wount slow down and the loud noise stays and i dont see anything on the screen. im guessing the fan noise is the ATI x1900 card...
    any help please..i just bought it 2 months ago...

    Hi, here are the steps I would go through. I would unplug the Mac Pro completely from everything and look at the video card's fan intake to make sure it isn't plugged and just make sure everything "looks" correct. I would then plug the machine back into one monitor/keyboard/mouse (leave all the other peripherals disconnected. Once that is done push the power button. Does anything happen? If not then if you have another mac and an external hard drive, make a copy of the OS on the drive and see if you can get the Mac Pro to boot off that drive. If the video card doesn't work then it will not show anything when booting off an external drive. If the external boot does work then I would suspect that you have a bad hard drive (or it crashed). At that point I hope you have a back up of all your data and such.
    Mind you these are steps I would go through. What a nightmare. One other thing to check, make sure your monitor didn't die.

  • My 2008 Macbook Pro makes a loud fan noise.

    Hello -
    I bought my 15" macbook pro back in October 2008. I was very happy with my purchase due to the machine's performance. But over the past year I have noticed an increase in the fan noise. It almost sounds like it's hitting against something at a very high speed, hense this irregular fan noise. The noise also increases drastically when I am working on Photoshop or InDesign. I also partitioned my hard-drive to hold windows so I can work on AutoCad.....noise increases also as I work on my machine.
    Why is this happening? Could this loud fan noise damage any internal component to the machine? Should I bring it in to Apple immediately?
    Thank you!

    Some of the applications that you mention are somewhat CPU intensive which creates heat and results in fan speed increase and hence additional noise (to state the obvious).  However if you are experiencing excessive noise when CPU loads are modest it could be that your fans are failing as all mechanical devices eventually will or you may have 'schmutz' inside that is the cause of the unwanted noise.
    I suggest you open the MBP and see if there is any dust in the fans that may very well be affecting their performance.  After 4 years, this is not an uncommon situation and it could be the solution to the problem.
    If not, then you may consider getting replacements from iFixit or Powerbook Medic and replace them your self.  It is not rocket science in this instance.  If you suffer from chronic fingerfumbilitis, then have the Apple store do it for you.
    Ciao.

  • Macbook pro retina start to make loud fan noise and work slow

    I bought macbook pro retina display less than one years ago. For some reason my macbook pro has been making loud fan noise for about five mounth. Whenever macbook pro makes the noise, all the programs start to run slow. Typing, opening safari, and etc takes forever. It takes 20min to 40min for the noise to stop. At first, the macbook pro made noise once or twice in a day, but now it's making the noise frequently; It happens every 2-3 hours. It got to the point where it start to annoying me. Is there a way for me to fix this issue? If not, can I use one year warrenty to fix this problem? Thank you.

    If your Mac works slowly when fans turn on, it's quite possible that there's a process which is eating the CPU and/or RAM.
    Open Activity Monitor (in /Applications/Utilities), select "All Processes" above "Show" (in the toolbar) and then, order the processes by CPU usage. Do you see any process which is consuming more CPU or RAM? If so, tell us the name.
    Additionally, you can reset the SMC > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964

  • Why does the MacBook Pro make a loud heat noise?

    So, when I was playing a game called "Modern Combat Domination" my MacBook Pro make a very loud heat noise? Does that mean I should stop playing the game? I worried. Thank You.

    That means your fan(s) sped up to dispose of the excess heat generated by playing the game. It's a sign that your machine is taking care of itself properly.
