Hi.
I am getting an audio artifact or snapping sound in the left channel of 48k WAV recordings.
I attached a JPG of a waveform.
mp3 here:
chiptape.com/dn300r.mp3Anybody know what it is?
Recorder is Denon DN-300r.
denonpro.comSource is an amp... TOA a912mk2.
toa.jpDenon asked some questions, but didn't respond after I answered their questions.
I don't think I can switch to the DN-300r's XLR inputs.
(I don't think my amp has XLR outputs.)
The following troubleshooting eliminated the snapping sound:
1... Record at 44k 16bit instead of 48k 24bit.
2... Record with CD recorder instead of DN-300r.
(Cd recorder is HHB cdr-830... I assume this records 44k, 16-bit.)
2... Recording MP3 instead of WAV.
I'm not sure if this eliminated the snapping sound.
So it seems like the 48k is the problem?
The following troubleshooting didn't eliminate the snapping sound:
4... Turn off auto level.
5... Record to different USB flash drive.
6... Try different source.
7... Switching left / right on RCA splitter cable.
8... Try different RCA cable(s).
9... Try new RCA splitter from Lowes.
10... Try old gray RCA splitter.
11... Record from different mics.
12... Switch top and bottom RCA cables on amp.
(top = aux out
bottom = Bridging input/output)
13... I think there is a partially-cut wire going from amp into speaker connector screws.
I cut off the nicked part of the wire and reattached.
Thanks.
