Re: 60-cycle hum removal?



DeeAa . . .

.. . . I suspect that you've created a ground loop by sending the signal to
both your cabinet and mixer. There's also always the possibility of hum
being created within any single component or between the combination of one
or several of the components in your chain. Cables should always be
suspect. Take a look at this product. No sales pitch, I just know that it
helps resolve various hum related problems.

Good Luck,
