Greetings:

I'm sort of crashing in here blindly. I'm a member of a band who's using DP3 to record. I'm not doing the engineering myself, but everything seems fine when we record. When we playback the tracks, though, we keep hearing something that sounds like STATIC. Needless to say, we've found ourselves RE-recording and RE-RE-recording.

We have no idea where the static is coming from. We have plenty of RAM. We though maybe it was our cell phones generating interference. We turned them off, and it didn't make any difference.

If it counts for anything, when recording a SINGLE instrument to a track,like a guitar for example, we don't get the static sound. It usually happens when we try to record the whole drum kit. Are we OVERloading the computer by trying to record the drums (4 pieces, 3 symbols, and hi-hat)?

Any help or insight would be MOST appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

PEACE
