M-audio Delta Audiophile 2496 -- any users?

[MattG]

I just got one of these cards and I'm having a problem. I've got a set of speakers connected to this thing (Klipsch), and I'm getting really bad noise every so often. So far I've only heard it happen when I'm using iTunes. I don't know how to describe it, other than to say that it's a loud, static-like noise. It goes away if I pause the music then hit "play" again. It happens every time I use it, at random intervals. Anyone else have this problem or have any suggestions as to how I can go about fixing this?

what OS are you using, and did you download the latest driver?

 

[MattG]

10.3.2, and yes, downloaded the most recent driver.

Seen that once, re installed the drivers and it went away, but that was under OS 9.2.1 on a G3. Normally they just work.
Try the drivers thing, if not, they have a lifetime warranty and M Audio are normally pretty quick fixing them.

i haven't experienced this (im using 10.2.8), i'd try emailing M-audio.. or possibly Klipsch.

Thanks for the responses guys...

Well, I'm pretty sure it's not the speakers. I had the speakers plugged in using the headphone-out jack on the Mac, and I never had this problem. And anyway, so far at least, it's only when using iTunes that I've had this problem. I played with Garageband for like an hour or so the other day and didn't experience the problem once. Not sure what's going on.

I already emailed tech support at M-Audio, Friday actually. Haven't heard anything back yet.

hmm.. maybe there's a setting that's causing it in that control panel.. forgot what they call it... hopefully they get back to you. If i think of anything ill post.
