mrintenso, DP wouldn't have to be in use, but it sounds like your noise could be caused by something else all together. Hopefully, this topic will keep going a while longer and that your problem will be resolved. In the mean time, if I find anything out, I'll certainly post back. Still, if you have any type of expired software, it could cause that random glitch/noise to occur.

We were recently tracking keyboards via SPDIF into my pal's DP system, and were having this same problem - random bursts of digital noise, lasting from a moment to a couple of seconds. After scratching our heads for a couple of days, we noticed that the time of day seemed to play a role - during business hours, it happened more frequently. We then thought, power. We checked the voltage, and it was varying from less than 115 v to over 124 v within a few minutes. My pal went and got a decent power conditioner, and voila, problem stopped. This may or may not help, but it can't hurt.

QUOTE (Jaysee @ Mar 1 2005, 10:07) is a power 'conditioner' the same thing as a surge protector? No, it is not. Surge protectors only block power spikes and surges. UPS's provide battery backup and surge protection, (also NOT power conditioning) A power conditioner maintains a constant AC power level and provides clean power to your devices. They are usually 1U rack-mount devices and provide multiple outlets. Furman is a popular manufacturer of power conditioners. Cheers,

Precisely - a power conditioner should keep the voltage and current levels constant (not the same a surge protection). Varying voltage/current levels can cause devices to malfunction or exhibit abberant behavior. No absolute concrete proof that this will solve your problem, but it did the trick in our situation. Power conditioning is an often-overlooked component in the typical small scale home studio.

Well, I've come across many articles since my last post, but nothing worth mentioning. Mostly 10.3.8 issues or things we've already covered. And my computers are still in 10.3.6 & 10.3.7 mode. ..Don't quite trust 10.3.8 yet. As to deleting all, without the in-unstall.... I usually go to Finder/Find, then I type in eaxctly as written on the culprit I'm trying to completely get rid off. Usually, everything that's related to the original file, plus the original itself, will pop up in the Finder reveal box. I'll then proceed to trash the culprits. Must be typed Exactly, though, ..other wise Finder comes up empty. If I suspect there might be left overs, I'll put on my Columbo hat, but that rarely happens. Wish all software had the un-install option, but then, ...there I go dreamin again.
