I have a computer that is used for a lot of audio recording.
Currently it has 4 sound cards.
2 internal (PCI while the other 2 are USB.
It's running XP 32bit.
The one card appears to be a Creative AudioPCI ES1370 while the newer claims to be Creative AudioPCI ES1371/ES1373.
The older card card seems to be getting hum/buzz on it's Line In even when nothing is attached it it at all.
The only thing that makes it go away is unhooking the Line In on the PCI card.
Yet the PCI card works totally normal and has no issues with hum/buzz, it sounds perfect.
Could it be a shielding problem?
I wanted to ask here before I went through all the drama of reconfiguring hardware/software only to find out I had no need to.
