[Spoelstra, P.J.] I have that buzz too, only over the headphones. Gladly I
have a mixer, on which I use my headphones. Otherwise I would have gone back
to the store to let them fix it. I think it's just a bad quality plug-in,
wich the store should find a solution for, or let EMU find the solution. 


Which sound ROM's would you recommend..mainly i do hiphop /rnb music, 
[Spoelstra, P.J.] I do hiphop too. I work with the MP-7 ROM and the Proteus.
Works fine for me, Proteus, has veriety of some good instruments (piano,
violins, guitar) 

  ..which of the orchestra ROM's is recommended?
[Spoelstra, P.J.] visit the next, has the list of instruments and few mp3's,
what's recommended depends on what you like

This problem seems to be very frequent for a lot of users...What has worked 
for me is removing the back..8 screws, popped out the ROM's and reseated 
(have World and Construction yard with MP-7) realigned the back carefully 
and tightened down the screws tightly, but not TOO tight...buzz gone...have 
to admit doing this on 2 seperate occasions...but it worked both times. EMU 
says it is a grounding problem, back not well grounded to the case as in 
loose screws (I added poor alignment) I think it is a bit more complicated 
as I had to do this more than once, but, as I said it worked both 
times...good luck...also there are tons of good drum/perc sounds on other 
ROM's, in my opinion the World ROM is exceptional it this area, other 
greeat souns as well.
