Annoying noise with line in

Bobo · 11-08-2006, 10:03 PM

Noooo....that's not it. The one that I posted is.

I'm still not seeing what you're getting at here...

On the image there the green one is obviously for the front channels while the pink one right above is for the analog line in. With the 7.1 model you would still see the same jack right above the green or blue colored front channel jack. That's the one to use for direct input from something like a turntable. You will note that "nothing" will be heard when patching a component turn table directly to it.

A dual cassette deck with the record on pause was used here to boost the signal where the Windows sound mixer or a 3rd party like Creative's sound mixer can adjust the input level. The other jack for the mic gets an overloaded signal causing the noise or distorted signal. The top jack is for digital not analog input. Refer to the manual.

No. No. No.

There are no ports on the sound card except 3 for the speaker output. I am using the box, whatever it is called.

just one question... how many plugged connections do you have in that particular line? card ->converter-> ?

make sure all those contacts are clean, and make sure they sit tight

Is it me or does pc eye just not listen? He showed you his exact card and told you the exact instructions yet you keep showing him a differnt one? If you are goign to try to help try reading and listening. Also that has to be one of the worst and most pixelated images i have ever seen on this forum. To answer the question i have had a similar problem with the exact same card and my turntable but just like with you when i moved it a little more and kinda screwed it in it went away i think there is a connection problem with the jacks..

No, he never listens. And he also regularly provides false information, and copies and pastes everything from websites, even if it has nothing to do with this topic. And I have plenty of evidence to back that up.

Yea that's what it seems like, but why? And how can I fix it? Just play with it?

Yes to answer your question the best thing is just keep playing with the connection it will eventually stop mine did after lots of playing and moving and messing with it.q

**Archangel** · 11-09-2006, 09:23 PM

like i said.. clean the connections.. if your moving it, your (slowly) cleaning the dust thats in it.

You are the one that doesn't want to listen.

When trying to explain how to patch into the card you are going off into something else. Fortunately newegg has a better image view in order to show just what jacks are for what purposes. Apparently the jacks are the same on 7.1 as the 5.1 models when compared at both Creative and newegg. If you were paying attention you would have noticed the image posted here gives a reference to explain just which jack is the line in.

Do I feel a little hostility from PCeye there for being called out? Just take a chill pill PCeye and dont get on the man for asking a simple question and then your not reading it correctly and going off on one of your usual rants man. Just becuase you are 51 years old does not mean you can be in charge of everyone else that is younger sheesh!
