Garageband has to do a fair bit of processing in order to display the waveform. In order to minimise wasted time for the performers, it allows you to hear this waveform straight away, while doing the waveform processing in the background. So really, you are seeing symptoms of the app developers trying to be helpful by letting you hear the music before it is ...

If the equipment is grounded, this could be a ground loop. (If you're using AC power and three-prong plugs, the third prong is the ground.) Try plugging the amp into a different outlet, one that's on a different circuit. They make ground loop isolators, but I don't know if they work or not; it might be worth investigating. (I've used three-to-two-prong ...

There isn't a single, simple answer for this question. This forum post explains: You can estimate the approximate Audio information [1] content of FM by using the bandwidth and dynamic range. FM pretty much tops out at about 15K and the dynamic range is about 70db. Each bit represents approx 6db so we need just under 12 bits and a sampling rate of 30K. ...

This could be a potential answer to you question. I was told one of the major reasons for balanced cables (note most guitar cables are unbalanced), is to prevent interference. Most notable is that of radio transmissions being picked up. The length of the cable relates to the frequency it will pickup, though your amp, or pickups could also pick up the ...

You're looking for a telephone hybrid. Excalibur makes one called the HA-1: There are a number of others, like the Broadcast Tools TT1 (still within your budget) and the JK Audio AutoHybrid (slightly outside your budget). Trans-hybrid loss (isolation) is measured in decibels, 20db is a fairly standard number to look for. Cost goes up for greater loss; ...

I wouldn't recommend either. The Behringer only sends 2 channels to the computer, and the Quattro doesn't have drivers for anything past Windows XP (with no mention of 64 bit). From my past experience with trying to do things "on the cheap" I've found that you need to very careful what you buy. Make sure you are not going to have to buy another one in six ...

Lithiumhosting is a great provider of streaming audio over the internet. They are pretty cheap too. I use their webservers and I am very pleased with their service! As to what softwares you should use. It depends on how much money you are willing to put into it. A good way of doing it would be to use an analog mixing board and send the audio into the ...

If the extra noise is happening when you are playing the keyboard, make sure the Overdrive is turned off. Also, try plugging your guitar into the amp and see if it does the same thing. If the extra noise is happening when you are not playing the keyboard, unplug the keyboard and see if it stops. Also, try adjusting all the knobs to see if anything ...
