I have also noticed a c hum when I'm forced to use mic in the hum is unacceptable

Also, I have noticed that if the recording volume is over say 14 or 15, then you might notice the hum when plugged in to AC. I try to keep my recording volume between 10 and 13, but of course that will depend on what and where you are recording. When possible, I also would rather use a mixer to control the preamping of all my signals and I prefer using line-in instead of mike if at all possible. I suspect that the power supply might be letting some AC ripple through. Just my thoughts.
