I have had a serious problem develop reciently in which RDCatch will just randomly start recording full-amplitude white noise type sound when programmed to record an audio cut. This issue can develop a few seconds into the cut recording, or 30-40m in, and at various times of the day, there is

What doesn't make sense is that things have been running fine on the whole up until a few weeks ago. Nothing has changed hardware wise, apart from the addition of and extra workstation. I have even re-installed the OS, tested all the hardware of the workstations, carried out the recordings on

Happy to hear it's exactly the audio card we have :-( I touch wood. By the way I'm not happy with the transformer either: sometimes it gives problems. Finally.. Dan, if you feel older versions were better nothing stops you of being stick on them. Alessio 2013/11/7 Fred Gleason > On Nov 7, 2013

Just for reference, we had a similar issue with our M-Audio 1010 last week: a hum noise suddenly appeared in the outputs; apparently something in the box is damaged. Unfortunely the card is still on warranty so we can't fix it by ourselves (it would be faster, now we must wait some weeks or months
