MicroX very noisy ... or is it just me?

Post by rtofvnt »

Halo everyone.

I'm just wonder if it's just my quite long audio connection from MicroX to Emu0404 audio card causing "noise" or this model isn't the perfect one.

I can hear from line out "digital noise" - i recognize that as digital because every time tempo LED lights up I can hear change in this "noise".

Is anyone having the same issue ?

Cheers.

Yes - mine is too - it sounds like either the tempo light or the power supply pulsing. I dont know how to eliminate it and have tried various different approaches without success.

Will try a different power supply and see if this fixes it.
Best Regards

I think I found what's going on.

Korg drop a ball on ... power box :-)

I've got also Korg R3 and when I connected R3's power supply digital noise level went down to nearly zero. What's even more funny I used MicroX power box for R3 and it's not noisy at all :-)
Any electronic guru here ? Is it about ground signal ... I don't know for sure, but again - If your Korg MicroX is very noisy - try different power source.
