Just thought I would mention here I used my eTap2hw on stage last night through my amp and it was fine, no noise and great echoes - I believe that my power supply was from Maplins. :idea:

Sounds like the PSU to me ......... What are you using ?

Dick.

Dick, it's a 12V, 1A supply off a Netgear router. I also tried it with another psu and I didn't find much if any difference.

Thanks, I will make some further tests.

Try an old fashioned transformer style PSU, switching supplies can cause all kinds of noise..

I'll have to make a trip to the nearest Maplin store for the cheapest PSU I can find

I'll maybe rig up a 12V battery supply first to check if the PSU is the culprit.

Thanks to all for helpful suiggestions

How noisy is noisy? (No I'm not being silly...) my eTap produces the Brian May "snowstorm" but quietly...
