Hi all, I've been dealing with the following issue for years now and I'm wondering if anyone has similar experiences.
Whenever I Record bass or guitar(or anything with passive pick-ups) I get this terrible digital computer noise in the signal.
My current setup:
GA-Z270X-Gaming7
I7-7700K 4,2Ghz
Universal Audio Apollo x8p
When I plug the Apollo into my 2017 Macbook pro and then plug a bass or guitar into the Apollo the noise is gone, it's completely clean.
I've googled this a lot and the most common answer I find is electromagnetic radiation from the cpu getting picked up by the pickups of the guitar.
This makes sense but why is it non existing on a macbook? Even if I hold the guitar very close to the laptop it's completely clean..
Would love to hear your thoughts on this.
Thanks in advance!
