Midi Drums Bleed into Audio?

[broome]

My midi drum track is bleeding into my audio track.
I made a beat (drum track) and recorded guitar into audio track.
Audio Track: mic my acoustic guitar; iRig Pre to my laptop

Results: Bleed

DAW: Ableton Live 9 Studio

Thanks

Bleed might has been caused by the headphone's cable that was close to/touching the mic cable.
Use shielded cables might help...

Devices like that aren't the greatest design when it comes to listening and recording at be same time.

The signals for both are sending a strong signal (enough to drive headphones or microphone) through that thin cable of wires, and if a signal is too loud then it will interfere with the other.

You could try having your drums be silent, really quiet, or being sent through a different output of your computer that is not the one that your mic also shares.

Ideally though, a USB device, like an audio interface, would be the best solution.
