janjanives Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 When I connect earphones on pod HD 500x, I hear a humming sound whenever there's overdrive patch on it or the amp is on . but when I turn on the dynamics(noise gate) sound , it goes away.. Or when I touch a metal it improves a "" little"" not like the noise gate.. Is this normal? :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealZap Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 headphone impedence can matter.... if you can try a different set of headphones... although it doesnt sound right that touching things should change it.... just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janjanives Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 I actually bought a new set of headphones and tried different headphones but there is a humming sound whenever there is a distortion effect,.. Putting the dynamic patch, noise gate removes it tho.. Or touching the strings, is that suppose to happen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey :) I actually bought new set of monitor headphones, the noise only happens when I turn on the amp block or a distortion effect or some other, but without effects or just clean sound, noise goes away..
