Amp is receiving radio signal? From my experience, sometimes it does. I believe it should be inline on the signal line, though I have only ever tried this on a dc player, turntable. Not on an instrument. The theory is similar I think, but I'm not 100%. |

Amp is receiving radio signal? It would depend on the nature of the device. By removing the ground, any charge that would normally pass through the ground (such as an electrical fault), will now need to find a new exit. If you are touching any part of the device which could be connected to the ground (such as the chassis, or metal enclosure), then you will become the ground. Touching the strings on an electrical guitar (for an unearthed amp), or holding a microphone (for an unearthed mixer) could result in some fatal earthing. Try a Ground Loop Isolater instead. |

Why are all my recordings fuzzy and quiet!? In reality any interface around $150 will be adequate for his purposes. As someone with a high end presonus, I would suggest this presonus.com/products/Detail.aspx?ProductId=60 |

Tape for labeling gear with a marker? Electrical tape leaves little residue on mixers, is easy to remove and replace (as opposed to gaffer), and is always cheap. Masking tape can be used as well, but breaks easier than electrical tape. |

Does rackmount hardware attach only on the faceplate? The unit is almost always balanced with the majority of the weight up front, so that it will balance when attached via the front plate. For longer units, or incredibly heavy units, additional mounting may be required, though such a case is quite rare. |

Amp is receiving radio signal? A word of caution, as noted above, removing the earth on any device with an earth pin is inviting danger. If it was a guitar amp for example, as the person holding the guitar, and thus touching the strings you become the earth. |

Do new speakers require a “break-in” period? The purpose of that example is not so much that it's burnt in, rather that the sound the instrument projects will change over time. |

Are there any audible differences between 192 and 320 kbit/s .mp3 files? A follow up if you were going to do a test. Listen to the high frequencies, especially violins and cymbals. Also listen for complex sounds like a bright crunchy guitar. The most common artifact you will hear will be like a phaser or comb filter. Though, you would need to ensure such artifacts are not being caused by the gear used in testing, including the digital analogue convertor and so on. |
