Re: APC40 creating high pitched noise
EMF's???
anybody tried plugging it in away from their gear. Fluorescent lighting ballasts? Turned off and unplugged the TV or your 220v vibrators maybe?

and timothy damn well knows that. you're being condescening in saying that he's doing it wrong.I said that most people with common sense don't point their mics at their computers especially when using it as a argument for the amount of noise they have from one piece of equipment...if you think that's unfair i apologies.
you find it hard to believe because you won't open your ears (err eyes) and READ what people are writing, you can't think beyond your own little world and insist on telling people how it is in THEIR studios, pull the banana out of your ass, that's just dumb and narrow sighted.it is hard to believe that it would be louder....which in my case is true...
if you really know what timothy is hearing in his studio then I know for sure that that's a number 12 Chiquita banana sticking out your ass. get it?? f-ing perve.
again, if you'd READ the thread I've stated many times that mine is fine, or at least the noise is much quieter than my drives. BUT I accept that other people have different experiences.i am so sorry that you got one of a bad batch i didnt thus far mine is silent i even did tests to the cause ...i am sorry this information wasnt of value to you but it might go towards proving that your apc is not functioning the way they should and might infact help you get a refund...or get it repaired.
now you're calling me an angry person and being rude. "peace" yeah, right. I have feelings too ya know.peace (no i will not take this out because it is a genuine sentiment no matter how angry a person you are or how much you dislike me i wish you no harm)

like I wrote earlier, there are varying reports of the level of the noise, why are you so narrow minded to think that everyone's experience is your own? it's the freaking interweb, there are many more experiences out there than your own. dismissing information people are posting will not help us figure out what's going on, we get it, you're not buying that people have APCs louder than yours. please STFU so the adults can do some critical thinking.

it's not just about recording noise, it's simply annoying to be in a room with a buzzing piece of gear.
still, I'd love to get an idea of just what people are experiencing. if nakedbestiality-banana-up-the-arse-boy is correct and you're a bunch of whiners, this is retarded. or brilliant if you're just trying to lower the customer base to make it easier for your friends to get a hold of one.
really, what's the reality of this for the whiners? because I WANT TO KNOW!!
I posted for people to post their serial numbers, please do so.

Re: APC40 creating high pitched noise
Brian - seriously, what's your role here? you're telling people they're not hearing what they're hearing, that's totally not productive. I am genuinely interested in hearing more about this and helping people, what's your role in this thread?
did I not leave enough clues to lighten the mood? lighten up man. you'll never get that banana out if you keep going on like this.
KK - lol, just a product of this environment.

Re: APC40 creating high pitched noise
so far i have done quite alot to prove that my unit does not have this problem...i did not say once that people do not have a hiss i just said that personally i wouldnt point a microphone at a piece of equipment that made a sound.....as you brought that as a genuine reason for it to be a problem.Tone Deft wrote:Brian - seriously, what's your role here? you're telling people they're not hearing what they're hearing, that's totally not productive.

all you have been doing is contradicting me....or misconstruing my what i am say to make it either insulting to me or other people....what is your role here other than being a child?
right i am officially bored with you i have stated what i needed in this thread more than once just to satisfy you and your slow pickup on information.
ill reiterate once more incase you really cant get it
i don't have a noisy APC40
You might have one talk to AKAI pro about it

Oh sure, It simply can't be avoided, but I won't worry until you get a nose job or a monkey.Tone Deft wrote:KK - lol, just a product of this environment.
have you?
Re: APC40 creating high pitched noise
no nose job but the wife is quite a monkey, or was that me? either way we get on just fine. eeeeek eeeek ooooooh oooooohhhh!!!knotkranky wrote:Oh sure, It simply can't be avoided, but I won't worry until you get a nose job or a monkey.Tone Deft wrote:KK - lol, just a product of this environment.

if anyone's not convinced SacredGeometry is a fuckwit I'll gladly rant on the bitch more but he's not worth it and seems to be having so much fun on the carpet. glad it's not my place.
please do post audio of LOUD APCs or an SPL.
if people would post serial numbers of loud ones I bet we can find a range of numbers to avoid, which batch went goofy on the production line.

Re: APC40 creating high pitched noise
So I just received a replacement for my first APC that was making the noise and the issue is not present in the new one. I was worried it was a design flaw.
Re: APC40 creating high pitched noise
mine is also making noise, especially at the same time a led lights up... but it doesn't bother me.
I'm just worried that if its bad circuitry that the unit could be damaged in the long run? Is that possible?
I don't know anything about electronics, but that's all I'm concerned about-that the apc40 works and won't crap out... The noise itself is not a big deal.
So how many of you guys who returned noisy apc40's got back quiet ones?
I really don't want to have to return it just because of the noise, but if its a bad indicator of something else then I guess I will have to.

Re: APC40 creating high pitched noise
the "noise" is only perceptible if you stick you ear on the apc [or very near].
If you Read the advertising notice that comes with the apc, it's written to not push stuff closest to it for efficient ventilation_ No overheat_
I don't say there some fans in it, but really the "noise" is so unperceptible_ the apc runs 100% fine.
My laptop is way more noisy than that_
