I wanted to play a guitar through jack-rack and I heard this noise. Did
it come from jack-rack, a ladspa plugin, jackd, alsa, the soundcard ?
This is why I tried to isolate the problem, ending with a very simple
setup : jackd connects the input channel to the output channel PCM Out 1
assigned to H/W Out 1 (with the "PatchBay/Router" in envy24control). I
still get the noise.

I don't have this problem when doing true hardware monitoring of the
input : be it by assigning H/W In 1 to H/W Out 1 (with the
"Pathbay/Router") or by assigning Digital Mixer L to H/W Out 1 (with
the"Patchbay/Router") and unmuting/raising the slider of channel H/W
In 1 with the "Monitor Mixer" pane in envy24control.
