Hi there,
I'm using the Inspire 1394 connected to Macbook Pro 15" (with Firewire 400 to 800 converter) recording into Logic 9.
Plugging a guitar into the guitar input, I get serious hum at non-workable levels. This hum goes away if I touch my laptop, or the Inspire, which leads me to believe it's something to do with an earthing issue?
I unplugged the Inspire from the wall so it's just running from USB and I still have the same issue.
Have tried a different guitar, and still the same problem.
Any suggestions on how to eliminate this would be great, thank you!
