noise problem

I got some new equipment that lowered the amount of noise when playing. That quieting made me more aware of the buzzing that can occur when not touching the strings, bridge, or other grounded metal. This old thread discusses it some. I feel like the problem isn't any of my basses because they...

Good evening fellow bassists, I have three basses (Fender AM Prof. JB, Squier 70s Vibe PB, Ibanez SR605) and all of them have the same/ a similar problem. When plucking near the bridge, there is some rattling noise coming, which is audible through headphones though but not really through the...

Hello! This is my first post in TalkBass although I've been reading you guys for years. So, today I bought a Hartke Hydrive 112C for a really good price, and when I was omw to getting it (200KM in car), the seller called me to say that the amp was doing a strange buzz on low frequencies while...

Hello! Here I am once again begging for advice. After being annoying in this thread (got a rumble studio 40 in the end, loving it!) I got this thing: Hurakan 200W / 41.600mAh – Litionite Pure sine wave, 200w, all good. I plug my amp. Noise. The rest is in the video: What do you guys...

Howdy Everybody, I recently got a Kala Uke Bass and really dig it except for one major issue I'm experiencing. I've plugged into and amp and done some recording going direct. The tone of the bass sounds great in the recordings I've done but there is so much extraneous noise coming from...

I have a 2006 American Fender Jazz Bass. The "noiseless" pickups it came with were anything but noiseless. So I replaced the Fender pickups with EMG J5's. Noise is still the same and I am a bit disappointed because the EMG's are supposed to have a very low noise level. But the two pickup systems...

Hello dear people, it's my first post here on TB. I've been googling for months now trying to solve the weirdest noise issue I have ever had. When I plug my bass straight into my interface there is no noise what so ever. However, when I use an XLR cable (frankly, it is not a balanced one) to...

We have a YAMAHA MC1602 in the rehearsal room and Im succesfully using the 1/4" Input. The signal gets to an amp and drives the PA -works perfecty. As soon as Im using any pedal, the signal is dead and a very loud hissing (I guess 80Hz) noise appears. Why? (not the cable, not the pedal, not...

So my Kingfisher arrived and overall, I'm pretty happy with it. All the downside was no surprise cuz I had read a lot of reviews (the heavy weight, the pots with weird tapers, the buzz). The good points of the bass more than make up for it. It looks great, is a joy to play and has great tone...

I just bought a DBX 160A Compressor, and I'm getting this strange hum or noise when I set the gain knob above 0. The compressor is connected to the effects loop of a Gallien Krueger 800RB amp. The send of the amp is connected to the input of the DBX, then the output of the DBX is connected to...

Greetings all, After looking and looking some more for this particular issue, I've decided to pose the question directly.... Bass: 2013 Ibanez BTB7, Limited Ed Electronics: CAP Sonic Arch humbucking pickups, Ibanez stock 3-band active preamp. Sounded great until recently, when I plugged it up...
