Any electrical guru's out there? I need help. I'm not sure if I have a ground loop problem or what, but here is my situation.
First, take a look at this picture, this is my current setup.
The problem?
When my mixer crossfader is on deck 1 (left), "technically" speaking, you shouldn't hear deck 2 at ALL. However, that isn't the case. When I'm monitoring the recording on my Xi-Fi program, and I have deck 1 paused and deck 2 spinning full blast, the recording meter is picking up the music. However, it's picking it up very low. If I were to pump up the receiver volume to 100%, you can hear the music with electrical feedback. If i lower the dBu volume on the recording, it sort of eliminates the problem, but the recording is too low, and I don't want to edit the sound after.
For regular play, this is fine. My speakers are loud enough, but for recording, you can definately hear it.
I'm not sure what else to do. I have switched outlets, isolated the mixer, isolated the computer, even re-arranged my room to have the computer to be further away from the mixer, etc. No luck. I still get some low feedback. Is it my outlets? is it my house that isn't grounded correctly? Any suggestions? Advice? Thanks in advanced.
ps. fear my paint skillz
