High pitched whine
I bought my Mbox last July. I've used it primarily for mixing tracks I recorded on a 16 track digital recorder. Since this was just stuff I was doing to learn Pro Tools, I didn't set up a set of monitors to mix through; just used headphones.
When I first got the Mbox, I noticed a high pitched whine that started whenever Pro Tools or Reason Adapted would start up. I didn't really think much about it then. But in the last couple of weeks, I've built a dedicated system to use based on the Allenstein specs...i.e. ASUS A8N-SLI Premium, 1 gig ram, X1300 video, 80 gig ide boot drive, 250 gig SATA audio drive. Finally tonight, I got to the point of installing Pro Tools. I bought the version 7 upgrade a couple of months ago. First thing I noticed was the high-pitched whine.
So, different computer, different version of Pro Tools, same Mbox, same whine. I guess the question is, do I have a bad Mbox? I'm not sure what the warranty length is; I've not had it a year yet.
Anyone have any ideas?
