Hi Dear Experts,
I've been having this issue for a while and finally made some progress in finding its source. I would kindly ask for your insights on this subject.
I am using a Hackintosh, High Sierra, Gigabyte Z170X with thunderbolt, Universal Audio Apollo connected into the thunderbolt port. I am experiencing a weird static interference, changing with computer activity or being unchanged sometimes (sample: https://www.dropbox.com/s/73uyhv7r7fz592x/noise recording.m4a?dl=0)
I originally thought that I am having a hardware issue and tried to eliminate the noise there. But then I noticed that if I dual-boot into Windows 10, the noise is completely absent. Once I log back into Hackintosh, the noise immediately returns.
Furthermore, when converting a WAV into MP3 by using a MediaHuman Audio Converter, the noise completely goes away once the conversion is launched, and comes back straight after the conversion is finished.
I conclude that such an issue seemingly lies in audio codecs/software communication to Thunderbolt/anything similar (not an expert!)
Any ideas where could I look to change some settings? Any clover configuration hints that could be a source of such behaviour?
Your help would be enormously appreciated, I've been trying to eliminate this issue forever now and finally was able to pinpoint its occurence...
Thank you,
Michael
