I actually experienced this a few months ago while I was living in a small town near the outskirts of Bangalore, really poorly grounded electrical infrastructure in most homes. I had a basic home studio setup and had recently got a new Strat which was badly setup out of the box and had some internal wiring issues, the grounding was also off. A lot of the times when I connected it to the amp, I could faintly hear a local radio station playing Kannada music every time the tone knob of my bridge pickup was at a certain level. It was extremely spooky especially late at nights because I lived alone in a 2 bhk house. It got to a level where I thought I was going absolutely insane but had a friend over one time and he heard it as well. Alas both of us had no explanation for it. Finally got an answer thanks to you. Really well explained.

Great video! I have a small music studio and have been plagued by radio interference. I only notice it from two sources - one source is my guitar rig. I occasionally hear the interference through my two amps, but it can happen with all my guitars (some single coil, some humbuckers, some shielded, some not). The more prevalent source is my Fender Rhodes. Nearly every time I plug in I get terrible radio interference. I can sometimes get rid of it by crossing cables or just waiting for a less noisy time of day (time of day that it isn't noisy isn't consistent). Both sources of interference pick up an FM (!) Tejano station. I'm really in desperate need of help and you seem quite knowledgeable. Thanks again for the great video!

Excellent video!

iSK Recording, you might want to consider addressing the common issue of all these handheld digital audio recorders, such as the Zoom and TASCAM models, which in many reviews (and even many YouTube videos) are demonstrated to be picking up (very) audible interference indoor and outdoors, places where buyers of such equipment might reasonably expect to be able to use them without such issues. If not to explain the specific issue, perhaps just to further expose it......
@accountisdisabled
Thank you for this, this was extremely helpful.
@coryroberts5048
Super helpful. Thanks bud!

Thank you

I bought the Warm Audio WA-14 large diaphragm condenser mic and have not been able to use it cause RFI is being picked up and I can hear it through my monitors, I have replaced the mic cable with a gold plated professional shielded cable and also bought a Furman power conditioner to help get some of the dirty power that was maybe causing the problem. It is still there and I have no idea what to try next to be able to use my mic. Great video! Thanks.

I've actually had my guitar amp pick up a radio station....all I heard was a voice when I was alone. Freaked me out until I realized what was going on lol

So I have a shure SM7B connected to a GoXLR. Every now and then I do get interference and pick up radio signals, from what it sounds like it sounds like a trucker on a walkie talkie or a radio. I think it might be due to the XLR cables that I got, I pick up radio frequencies from them and well I think its because I hadn’t put much thought into it and got some cheap cables thinking it didn’t matter and id save a buck or two. I ordered a canare L-46ES quad balanced cable, so hopefully that helps ! My house (or at least my room) doesn’t have 3 prong connectors, so I can’t keep my stuff properly grounded. I don’t know a way to work around this, another thing I thought is that maybe ordering a cloudlifter might help? maybe it could help with interference, but I honestly don’t know. I’m a complete beginner to audio stuff and clearly I haven’t done my research before investing so much into this setup. I’d like to know what you reccomend! Any products to help ground my connection? thanks!
@icecreaman2010
Cell Towers can be an issue as well with condensor microphones
@guspalaskas4290
I have been experiencing an unusual interference. It is very brief - about 1-2 sec- occurs at an interval of approximately 60 seconds, and sounds a bit like a bug zapper. It’s baffled me. Worse with certain guitar PUs. I remember originally thinking it was a defective acoustic guitar pick up I had installed, but I couldn’t reproduce it at the shop and I’m sure the tech thought I was crazy. I suspect it’s coming from something in the house or possibly even outside like a cell tower? Does anyone have any ideas of what might cause an intermittent sound like that? And, by the way, the video was great, and I learned a lot!
@JonnyB-b8y
It's crazy how when I just move my mic inches away to a different part of my room the hum goes away. Shure Mic + Focusrite through MacBook set up (apartment set up*) lol. I imagine the area where I'm getting the hum from might be near a transformer?
@santiagozamora3695
Great video! I have a question. Would a DI box help with radio interference when recording guitars? Maybe plugging the guitar into de DI box an then to the XLR input on my audio interface. I’m not really sure how it works and wether the ground lift on the DI box would help or not. Thanks!
@jasonlester4422
You didn't mention wifi
@josephkennedyemmanuel9658
How can I send you a audio/video sample sample of my RF problem?
@ninaandsakura
Play some examples of interference!
