I'm using Guitarix with a Behringer Guitar Link USB Cable and I get a hissing noise but it's not directly amplified by guitarix distortion.
Attached is a short sample of the noise. Without listing all my hardware components, what you do you think could be done about this?

Re: hissing noise
Yes I do, I didn't really notice up till now but it is definitely there (listen to the new sample)
I'm not sure how the noise is amplified by guitarix, I have some really high gain presets but the noise is actually minimal compared to the first sample I posted earlier.
I'm pretty sure it's the Behringer interface though. When I switch to a different PC I hear a very similar noise there. So either I have two bad PC's or I have a bad USB interface (or both )

Re: hissing noise
I got no idea what's goin on! But to measure hiss on your interface you need to record silence.
I think you are getting feedback from your speakers (hiss.mp3) and you get sound of holding strings down on guitar (hiss-clean.mp3).
Anyway "silence" sections on both files are too much different to blame usb interface.

Re: hissing noise
Thanks, I will record total silence later today.
I'm using headphones plugged into the interface, so there are no speakers!
You are right about the string noise in hiss-clean.mp3 but if you turn the volume up really loud you will hear a constant noise, it is most audible from 00:05 to 00:11 I guess (because of the guitar string ringing out)

Re: hissing noise
That is probably answer, it could be interface crosstalk.apathity wrote: I'm using headphones plugged into the interface, so there are no speakers!
I have behringer too and I got crosstalk about +20db above noise level - don't remember exactly.
Re: hissing noise
Thanks a lot, I would have never assumed that it has to do with the headphones! I will check this out later.
