Check the earth connection in the mains electricity plug (the one that goes into the wall).
Also check these connections in the plugs of all the other equipment in your studio. |

Sounds like it might be an 'earth loop'... I don't have the knowledge to explain what is going on but this is a common problem with audio equipment.
Try and make sure that you have all your music gear running from the same power socket, especially the PC, the mixer and the amplifier. If none of this works, try disconnecting the earth lead on the power plug of the computer and wrapping the end with insulating tape before you put the plug back together...
BE VERY CAREFUL that you MAKE SURE that the earth lead CANNOT TOUCH THE OTHER CABLES in the plug, or you will FRY YOUR PC!!!! IF you're not sure about doing this, don't do it. |

Yeah, I had a friend with same problem in laptop....
You connect the laptop to that small power box, and then it goes from power box (this is not the name but i don't know proper name...) to the plug....
With my friend it was happening because of the cable you connect to the power box, actually it was me who found it out, i just played a bit with the cable to see if it was bad contact, found the like "balanced position" and the noise stopped....
try to see if its a bad contact in the box plug, it might be same problem....
dunno if i could explain very clearly... |

aloah thujon...
laptops make all the time noises u don t want...but with that your prob isnt solved ah...hmm...
colins advice is good: try to open your adapter/converter, n take out the "earth" ( should be yellow/green ) .
but bear in mind that is isn t a solution over time...just to figure out where the bug is...
good luck

If u open plug in wall don't forget to put the electricity out before 
We don't want to see a toasted tHuJon, hehehe 
But as I told, I think the problem is in connection between computer cable and adapter.... |

no---when i just use the battery the sounds arent there...
and when i use a amplifier with no earthplug it works...
Funny...
but what i could do that i don't get a noise like that in a Club or a Party ??
there i can't make the energybox open ...
can i change something with my Laptop ??
Maybe take the Earth out ??
i'm a bit scared to do that ..because i'm a Music Freak ... not such good with electricity ...
what when i isolate the earthcable from my Laptop ??
Thanxx ya all---

the easiest ( and for the rest of the equipment safest ) way to that is to do a extensioncable which has a female with 3holes ( where the adpater male comes in ) on the one side n on the other a male with 2pins which u plug in the wall...
easy to do...go to "hobbycenter or jumbo". maybe they have even finished ones.
u need 1mm^2 diameter for the cable. ask someone which u should use as phase n which as 0.
drop me a mail if there are still probs.
e.p.s: where u live now ? still near walensee or where ? -maybe i can do one for u...

...ah lucern...nice lake too =(-;
-i m from surigo... =(-X
yeah, go to the jumbo, get a extension-cable (3 connecs/plugs ), n a 2 connector male-plug n put them together ( just with the screws, no soldering ! ) et voilà.
or if the 3 connec-cable has a plug which u can open ( screw ) take out the middle pin/connec et...voilà =(-8
good luck
