One issue though, I'm getting a nasty zipper
noise in one monitor
connected to the edirol ua-25 whenever any keyboard, trackpad, disk or
video activity happens. If I unplug from the power supply and run on
battery the noise goes away. Everything (laptop and 2 active monitors)
are on the same power strip. ua-25 and remote25 are usb powered. I
recall someone else reporting something similar recently.
Is there anything I can try to do to get rid of the noise when plugged
into power?
I doubt it - it sounds like your laptop vendor used cheap noisy
capacitors.
If you use high-end power strips with over-voltage protection like
from APX or other vendors then possibly putting them on separate power
strips might work.
I'll try that. Thanks for the suggestions ... not holding out much hope
a better-isolated sound card might fix the issue as well. ive heard plenty of noisy
desktops/notebooks that were fixed with a proper pci/pcmcia card.. even if the plugs were
still attached to the card/case rather than breakout...
maybe even a 3-pronged AC adaptor if youre using 2-pronged? kind of a long shot, but who
knows...
