How do I get rid of the continous hum when I plug it on an acoustic - electric amplifier (epiphone) &amp; electric amplifier (Fender)

It sounds like you must have a defective unit. I don't get a hum with either tubes or solid state amp. Sorry yours is making bad noises.

I actually didn't. I suppose I should have tried a better pickup, more shielding in the guitar cavity and better cables. Also, moving further away from the computer may help... or from the amp, for that matter. I don't use the Plug anymore.

This is 100% incorrect, something Monster just made up to sell more cable. If you're getting hum then it's something else in your system.

What you are referring to is most likely a phenomenon called "ground loop" or ground loop noise. This occurs when two or more items use the same ground arriving through different paths or it may also be EMI (electro-magnetic interference) from the various wirings around it. The easiest solution to get rid of it? A ground loop isolator works wonders and in this particular case there are ones available that require no special modification or installation, they install basically "in line" with the aux cable! I found one on Crutchfield and also on SonicElectronix (eBay as well) for less than $20, although I have yet to find this particular style here on Amazon. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_8987_PAC+SNI-1-3.5.html

not sure exactly, but have you tried using a different cable and/or mic to see if the hum goes away? perhaps one of them is faulty.

I found that making sure there was no interference from any other electronics nearby helped. Just experiment with moving the unit, the input cable, and the source of your sound (whatever you're broadcasting) around until you find the sweet spot. I've got virtually no hum now, but occasionally I'll hear some and invariably find that someone has moved one of the elements around. Once I put it back where it belongs, no more hum.

it solved my humming problem when i used 2 or more components plugged into my receiver. but when i got a more powerful amp i didnt need it. i would try it...you can always return it.

Electro-Harmonix 12AX7EH - Very Good Choice! I did it on mine. You have to wait about an hour of warming up to get rid of the hum and noise, after that it is so good

Nah man. I looked something up like that before. Its either your wiring in your house or you need to get your amp checked. Mine kinda makes a sound like that on OD2 on almost full gain and volume when my guitar is plugged in though. So check the wiring or you amp if nothing is plugged in and making that noise. Hope this helps.

I haven't had any buzzing problem ( well, my Strat hums some, but that's not from the amp, since it's not present with the Les Paul ). And i haven't experienced the "hissing" that people have complained about on various forums. I 've read that this was a problem with earlier runs that Vox eventually solved. Also, there's a variable noise reduction feature/control on the amp. But, using a good quality instrument cable, i've heard very little to no "hum" or "buzz" even without using the noise reduction.

Lucy,I found the source of my hum. I have Direct TV HD. I found that going into the menu settings/Audio/Sound Effects and turning that option off, I was able to rid myself of the annoying hum. The option has something to do with keeping the audio settings from channel to channel, while it is changing you hear dead air except for the hum. Nice and quit now. Love this receiver!Larry

If I do not have anything (no Inputs) plugged into the amp, mine does not hum, even with volume turned up to max.

i doubt it. from what i know having your equipment plugged into different circuits would only make the hum worse. in any case if your equipment hums it is probably not worth spending this much money to fix the problem. good equipment doesn't hum no matter where you plug it in. i suggest getting equipment that uses balanced ( XLR ) or digital ( Optical / Coaxial / XLR ) interconnects. Regular consumer unbalanced analog technology is inherently inferior and was never designed for high performance.

I think you can. Connect your guitar (cable with 1/4" jack) into Input of PDC21, and then XLR M/F cable from PDC21 XLR output to XLR input on your mixer. I use PDC21 between output of mixer preamplifier or keyboard and input of power amplifier to get rid of hum noise and it works.

You're experiencing ground loop hum. Try using batteries only. If you still here loud hums, send it in for repair.

I just recieved an iMic as a gift and I too have a hum in all my recordings.Roxio CD Spin Doctor can remove some of the hum but then the music and the vocals are diminished. I am looking for a cable also.

Had the same problem with mine, which was very frustrating because I invested in pro audio cables (Input and output) from Guitar Center before the amp even arrived. After researching online, I purchased a DB Link NF103 Reference Series Ground Loop Isolator for $13 from Amazon which eliminated most of the noise. I also plugged it into a Monster Power HTS1600 Power Conditioner which I was already using for my home theater and the problem was solved.
