Emax

No, it was coming out of the audio outs! When I turned the channel volume up
(of the channel where the Emax was inputing, of course) on my mixer, the
squeel got louder..  Anyhow, a few rubber feet (the sticky kind, from an old
mackie compact mixer) fixed that right up - I just had to seperate the hard
drive from the metal casing of the bottom panel... No more squeel, and I
still have a super speedy hard drive. :D

Thanks,
    Michael
