Hi everybody,
I have a strange buzzing noise, and I have tried to fix it before - but to no avail. Please accept my apologies in advance as this is quite confusing to describe lol
Firstly here it is:
This is with the mic muted.
-------------------
My setup is kinda strange as I stream to both YouTube and Twitch. I stream to YouTube from my gaming machine which has the blue yeti plugged in - crystal clear mic sound.
I then set the listen to this device - and send it through the Avermedia HDMI. (along with stereo mix) - this works fine - no buzzing all sound is clear.
However, I have very little mic control as it all comes in as 1 feed - so I have tried sending the mic via a 3.5mm cable to various ports from my gaming machine - TO - the streaming machine (this allows me to set OBS to use my mic - which will give me more control over levels etc)
I have tried getting a jack cable to go from a spare headphone port to the line in on my streaming pc - I get this buzzing
I tried from the speaker on the blue yeti to the streaming pc line in - same buzzing
I tried from the speaker on the blue yeti to the streaming pc mic - same buzzing
Is it the cable - no :(
I tried taking the cable out of my streaming PC and putting into the mic port on my gaming PC - and recorded using audacity - No buzzing.
So to me, it has to be something on my streaming PC that's causing the buzzing.
#plottwist - If i plug the cable into my phones headphone jack...then into my streaming PC - No buzzing..WTF? lol
More Pointless Info
The electrics are the same for both the streaming and gaming machine. Its had a new motherboard, CPU and PSU - still the buzzing is there.
Even if i mute my mic - the buzzing is still there.
If i use my linein on the Avermedia - buzzing is there
This week i purchased a really cheap USB soundcard (as the internal one would give the same buzzing like the AVERMEDIA line in), which gives a speaker port, and a mic port - plugged into that - still buzzing.
What else can It be? Is there too much power going through the 3.5mm cable when its plugged into a PC? Is it the case?
Just to confirm, the mic when listened to through the HDMI port - is crystal clear.
I am at a total loss, so if you have any suggestions, please let me know :)
Thank you in advance :)
