Well, there you go.  You shouldn't plug your main out into the input of your 
m-audio.  WHen you arm a track for recording and turn on input monitoring, the 
signal is being fed back in.  You should use a separate bus to feed the input 
of your sound card so that only the signals you want will go there.

  Hi Gord,

  I have a standard lead going from the main out from my mixing desk to the 
main in on my M-audio.  I monitor and listen back through the M-audio headphone 
out.

    It sounds like you may have a feedback loop going through your sound card.  
How do you have your sound card connected to and from your mixer?

      Hi Phil,

      I only have one sound card, its the m-audio fw 4-10.  As I said in my 
earlier post, when I play audio files through this sound card they are fine, no 
noise, however, when I launch Sonar and arm the track, there is a low, slow 
pulsing buz.  When I hit the record key, the buz seems to disappear.  Then 
after I've recorded several tracks another low constant hum can be heard.  

      Any suggestions?

      .  Its not too obtrusive, and when I arm the track

        Jim, what sound card are you using in order to playback audio outside 
of Sonar?  If you are exclusively using the M-audio in Sonar and a second sound 
card to play audio in other applications then, it could be the M-audio.

          Hi List,

          Every time I launch sonar I get a low level pulsing hum.  I thought 
it might be my M-audio fw 4-10 sound card, but when playing other sound files, 
everything sounds clean as a whistle.  Could this hum be something to do with 
my pc?  

          Best wishes
