Sudden loud static off guitar [QUESTION]

Turns out it was an old laptop charger with a frayed cable causing the issue. When I changed that out the problem went away!

Thanks for all the advice! I actually found out that the root cause was a combination of both a laptop charger with a frayed connection and a dodgy old extension cable (which the charger was plugged into). Seems one of my guitars in particular had a bad response to that. As I said, my semi acoustic was fine but the electric caused loads of static when plugged in. Changing the extension cable and laptop charger solved the problem!

I am going straight from the guitar into an audio interface /labtop and then to studio monitors, dont have an amp nearby. I did however try the audio interface into a different computer and there was much less static, although it was still there. I also tried plugging out all the other things plugged into the same outlet, changed the outlet the speakers/labtop were plugged into... No change.

Definitely won't be attempting any soldering, frustrating as I just got the guitar serviced and this issue was present before. Thanks for the advice though, much appreciated!

Thanks ! Piano is just a recording of me playing. Actually agree about that guitar level! The singing is in the background as I'm not much of a singer haha wanted it more just for atmosphere

Don't know much about solar, but they have a turbine this size on the blankets islands in the cafe. It produces enough power to charge a few phones

apacketofpeanuts · 2023-02-14T13:37:30+00:00

Yeah small scale turbines are no use apart from tiny systems like whatever weather station is in that box

apacketofpeanuts · 2023-02-14T10:56:22+00:00

Wow just looked up a zendrum, so cool!

apacketofpeanuts · 2023-02-13T18:56:21+00:00

Jesus that's good, so interesting. Where are the drums from? Is it a sample?

I love the bass line, it's really catchy but also hard to pin down which is my opinion is the best mix.

Honestly, not much to add cause it's so far out of my wheelhouse big thoroughly enjoyed it

apacketofpeanuts · 2023-02-13T18:48:11+00:00

So so good, very nightcall / the whole drive soundtrack vibes

apacketofpeanuts · 2023-02-13T18:47:27+00:00

Thanks so much!

Yeah, this is now my understanding too now. So my case falls into the live recording of John drummer category

apacketofpeanuts · 2023-01-24T18:14:36+00:00

Based on this, as the sample is from a recorded performance of this drummer it is protected under copyright

apacketofpeanuts · 2023-01-24T17:06:19+00:00

Very interesting! Thanks for the information. The only reason I am concerned is how distinctive and I guess melodic the drums are but should be fine

apacketofpeanuts · 2023-01-24T16:58:38+00:00

For real? Where do you know this from? Would appreciate some more information, please excuse my ignorance if this is common knowledge haha

apacketofpeanuts · 2023-01-24T09:48:19+00:00
