Hello, I came across an interesting problem last week at work. In our
smaller recital hall we have an audio rack that contains:

Alesis Masterlink
Tascam CDRW-2000
Panasonic SV-3800
Rane Signal Distributor
2 Neutrik patch bays
Samson wireless receiver
Shure wireless receiver
EV 4 channel mixer
2 Crown amps

the alesis, tascam, panasonic, rane, and one of the crown amps are linked,
and the rest of the equip. is linked.

One day, I opened the CD tray on the Masterlink and the sound of the tray
motor somehow got picked up by the Shure wireless receiver and amplified out
through the speakers. I can't find any logical reason for why that
happened. Any help??

** That is far too much and too diverse gear to have all crammed into the
same rack.

** Yeah - try seperating the radio gear into its own rack.

FM receivers are sensitive to nearby magnetic fields from motors and
transformers.

That helps...thanks

This all worked fine for some time and now you suddenly have a problem. I
get things like this all the time. I usually find that there was some
meeting and things got changed. My first thought would be to double check
all connections and settings if you have other people with access to the
equipment. Next would be a bad ground or connection. Check your wires.

We got the Masterlink this last summer and it didn't happen before that, so
there's something with that...
