(sorry missed the original message) Sounds like a groud loop to me, I think the solution is to change the state of the group/shielding in the MIDI cable, but I'm not really sure, google for "ground loop midi" you will find lots of refereneces. Normal MIDI cables are supposed to prevent ground loops, but those ones that plugin into D-type soundcard connectors can cause prolems, and I've had problems with combinations of normal MIDI cables and/or XLR cables that were wired wrongly. - Steve
