Xmod: sound distortion on USB 2.0

Next problem with Xmod,
there are extreme sound distortions if connected via USB 2.0 hub. Direct connection works. Already tried two different hubs, same procedure ...
great product, solve one problem, get the next for free ....

Ok, bringing this back from the dead beacuse the problem has suddenly returned after "magically" fixing it's self for the last few months.  Everything seems to be exactly back how it was before, the usb card works, the drive works, they just don't quite work together.

  • Output sound distortion when USB Mic Connected

    Hi everyone,
    Really appreciate anyone’s help on this sound distortion problem.
    I have been using the new 2014 iMac 27' for last 8 Months, bought Brand New, and recently updated to Yosemite. Everything worked fine including recording, until this update.
    I'm using Blue Yeti USB Mic for recording, and few days after the update I was trying to record in GarageBand and the output sound (via headphone connected to USB MIc) started to distort and then suddenly dropped the bitrate/ sound and I could only hear some clicks. I reinstalled the GargeBand, still its the same distortion happens. The sound gets back to normal, only for few seconds, after I unplug the USB cable from the Mic device. And I tried changing the bit rate and again sounds starts to drop after few sec. This happens only when I connect the Blue Yeti USB Mic and sound output from the Mic itself. Same thing happens with iTunes as well. Output sound from Internal mic and speakers are working fine as normal.
    I tried connecting the USB Mic to my Windows laptop and its working fine with the Cubase 5 without any problem. So the problem is with the output sound, when external Mic connected.
    I don’t know the solution for this. Have checked on every single blog/ thread, sill couldn’t find the answer I’m looking for, to fix this.
    It would be great if you have any kind of a solution for the same.

    Nope. The larger buffer didn't work. What did work was running a cord out of the 1/4-inch jack from the direct box to a 1/4-to-1/8-inch adapter and then into the mic/line-in jack on my computer. I set GarageBand to use the built-in line-in and had no static problems. It's a stopgap until this gets fixed.

  • Horrible Sound Distortion with Creative HS-950

    Hi, I recently bought the HS-950 USB Gaming headset. About 4 hours into gaming, I experienced an unpleasant sound distortion that made everyone on Vent Sound slowed down. I unpluuged my headset and a few hours later I had the same problem. After reading through the forums I have gathered this is a Major problem. But is there a Fix?
    I am running Vista 32bit and using Realtek HD sound.
    Thanks,
    Vortexx.

    I'm having the same problem .. horrible sound quality (headset OR headphone mode) on a MacBook Pro with built-in Bluetooth. I've got the latest & greatest update of Leopard too.
    Headset works great with my cell phone (no distortion).
    Will keep looking. Someone please post if they see a solution.
    Here's one possibility, although it says it is for Tiger and requires some command-line manipulation (not bad, but I don't expect to have to do this kind of thing on OSX):

  • Sound distortion on Mavericks (10.9.1)

    Hi.
    I am experiencing some audio distortion issues with Mac OS 10.9.1. It sounds as if anytime there is sound coming through my headphones, a noise track starts playing in the background. I tried 2 different headphones, one of them are USB, and the other goes into the headphone plug. Same issues with both. I don't know what is causing it, but I am certain it's the OS-es fault. Watching ANY video on YouTube, listening to music, watching movies... Anything I do in the OS. If I reboot my computer and boot into my Linux partition, everything sounds fine (the USB headphones require some software that is unsuported, but the other ones work well, and I am not getting any distortion in the sound).
    Thanks in advance!

    *bump*
    I've heard that reseting the PRAM might resolve audio issues, but I'm not sure if it's safe, since I have a non-native Linux partition with ReFit.

  • Sound Distortion playing DVDs with Audigy2 Va

    Last time I have problems playing DVD movies on my computer: The sound is distorted
    by scratches like an old vinyl. I am using a SB Audigy 2 on Win XP. I have tried several software DVD players, reinstalled the old drivers from CD and cleanly installed teh newest drivers via internet auto update. I also tried to update my VIA chipset drivers, deactivated several background programs etc.
    I found out that disabling the sound acceleration in DXDiag removes the sound distortion but then the sound (speech, effects) within a movie are extremly quiet compared to the music.
    Another thing: First I deinstalled completely the software and drivers from my audigy to replace it with new ones. Then I had to notice that the new Audio Control Center does not support the option to send bass-frequencies to my subwoofer. I could set the speakers to 5. but had no chance to get my subwoofer working. At the moment I have status quo by using new drivers, but my old creative applications for configurating my speakers.

    Ijust checked the preferences, go to Disc Setup and on the bottom in the Audio section, check off the box that says "Disable Dolby dynamic range compression" see if that helps.

  • My IPad mini is experiencing sound distortion

    My IPad mini is currently experiencing some sound distortion, how can I resolve this problem

    Have you tried rebooting the iPad?
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Sound Distortion AP 11 and 12.

    I'm experiencing sound distortion and weak signal after AP upgraded to 11. I downloaded 12 and I still have the problem. Windows 7.

    AP?  You mean Flash Player?
    12 is a beta, so it's not a good idea to use that to remedy playback problems as it's a test product.
    Are you experiencing audio issues elsewhere? Windows Media Player, iTunes, Quick Time or VLC for instance?

  • Sound distortion in most recent episode of Lost

    Hi all,
    the most recent episode of Lost plays on my Apple TV with really bad sound distortion starting from 4.23 and continuing to the end.
    I have a series pass so the episode downloaded onto my Apple TV. The file that has synched with my Mac plays fine in iTunes. I've changed the sync options to remove that ep of Lost from the appletv and then synched back, but it still does it. The episode is Lost s6 e6 'Sundown'. Has anyone else had this issue? I don't want to watch it on my laptop, I really need it to work on the Apple TV!
    Thanks
    Caspar

    Not the best solution, but at least you'll be able to watch this episode on the Apple TV.
    Either:
    Switch Dolby Digital Out to Off in Apple TV's setting. The episode will then play the Stereo AAC track instead (which is fine, btw). Problem is, you'll have to switch Dolby Digital Out back on if you want surround sound back for other content.
    Or:
    Download an App called Subler.
    Open the HD Episode of Lost in Subler.
    You'll see that subler lists the video track and two audio tracks. The Digital surround track is not ticked, but this normal and is not the cause of the 'static problem'
    Select the surround track and click the delete button.
    Save the file and re-sync to Apple TV.
    It will now play in stereo.

  • How come some apps won't play sound on a USB device but only on the internal speaker while others can?

    How come some apps won't play sound on a USB device but only on the internal speaker while others can? Mac OS 10.8.5

    You can simply set your system preferences
    Sound preference
    output - to whatever your USB device/audio interface is
    Your question seems a bit vague to me though. So can you actually inform us of what it is you are trying to do and give us examples with named kit.

  • Sound distortion issue when uploading iMovie

    Each time I try to 'Share' a movie I created the sound distorts once it's uploaded.  It's driving me crazy!  I've read other posts re this problem but no resolutions given.  The sound just ends up a bit fuzzy - it's fine until it's uploaded to file or iTunes etc.  Does anyone else know what the problem may be?

    Solved it by downloading win 8 drivers for audio from sony support... followed condor's suggestion http://community.sony.com/t5/VAIO-Windows-10/LAPTOP-VAIO-SVT15112CSX-audio-drivers-that-work-with-windows-10/m-p/516334#U516334  

  • Having sound distortions in games with M-Audio Revolution 7.1

    I'm having sound distortion problems with a couple of games. I think this started a few OS X updates ago, but not sure which one. Two known games are Quake 3 and Quake 4. When I run either of them, the sound is deep and distorted.
    I'm sure an update of OS X broke m-audio's revolution driver. I currently have driver version 1.4.1. I only have distortions when sending sound output to my sound card. Sound sent to internal speaker comes out fine. I also tried with a freshly created user and freshly reinstalled driver & prefs. Same problem.
    I've tried M-Audio's site with no luck for solutions. It's been a year or so since they have updated it.
    Is anyone else having similar experiences with their M-Audio Revolutions?

    I dont think the Card will fully work with your Machine, because of your BWG3's specs.
    Reading the basic info, for Multi-Channel Operation aka Surround Sound you comptuer is not at Spec as it states it requires 733MHz G4 QS min, 800MHz G4 QS recommended.

  • Why am I getting sound distortion when connecting iPad 2 to amplifier.

    I am getting sound distortion when connecting iPad or iPod thru amplifier using AirPlay or 3.5mm to rca cables. Also the sound has far too much bass. No problems when connected in car.

    It sounds like a mismatched impedence.  What are you connecting to?   the output from the jack is intended for headphones, and is not just an audio out.
    Try turning the volume on the pad way down, and use the gain on your amp, and see if that minimizes the issue.
    There is a pure audio signal for both channels on the 31 pin plug, but you would need a special cable to use it.  I would bet they are available if you google.  Although I have read that the 31 pin signal is not filtered like the headphone output, so while it is a pure audio output, there may be some noise in it that would need to be filtered.
    Try google for a 31 pin cable.  ( the input for the car is probably built to take a signal from a headphone output, while your amp may be expecting a lower power signal)

  • Sound distortion - Pavilion DV6-3040sa

    Hi, 
    When i was at university, i had to connect my laptop via ethernet to gain internet access as there was no wi-fi connection in student halls. The sound distortion was quite bad. I couldn't even listen to music or watch video's as the sound would go distorted. It got worse if i tried streaming videos off the internet such as youtube. When i returned home, i connected to the internet via wi-fi and i didn't seem to experience any sound distortion. The sound was fine except for the odd occasional distortion but it wasn't a big problem. I assume it is something to do with the network cards? If someone could help me fix this problem, it would be much appreciated. I'd like to enjoy my music and videos without any distortion again
    Thanks,
    Kin.

    Uninstall both audio and network drivers through Control Panel > Programs and Features, reboot the computer and install updated one from here
