Hi guys,
What's the hell with this thread??!
It seems like some of you are going crazy or an AI bot try to flood
the discussion with pure off-topic shitty sentences...
Thanks for the voice of reason. It was just the Internet doing internet things. ;)
BTW, just to mention that I had this lovely M-Audio
Fast Track Pro
working for years without distortion and now recently with a 64 sample
JACK buffer through a 4.16.0-0.bpo.2-rt-amd64 kernel, on a good recent
laptop.
I can help anyone that give me all precise technical details needed,
but avoiding any side psychoanalytic bug report.
My first thought was a hardware issue with the original poster's specific unit. On my
cheap little Behringer UCA-202, when I have it recording from the inputs (say an external
hardware keyboard) while simultaneously sending sound through the outputs (say the
computer-generated sounds I'm playing along with), the line in signal strength drops
in half. Stop sending anything out the unit's outputs, signal back to normal.
Or maybe something originating in a poor electrical ground somewhere in the wiring. If I
connect my UCA-202 through a powered external hub, I get static. Disconnect the hub power
supply, static is gone.
I also have an old cheap Yamaha keyboard workstation. Simply turning it on introduces
steady, low-level white noise.
Sound and electricity can be a complicated mess. ;)
