[QUOTE="David Wise, post: 216175, member: 15367"] Hi Paul, thanks for checking it more. The sound is there before any type of conversion or export, happens during immediate playback within any of a number of apps, Logic, Garageband, Audacity, etc., and on multiple operating systems (tried Audacity in boot camp Windows 10). And yes, did try listening back to the Zoom SD's recording transferred onto the Mac via USB storage mode, sounds fine. I have listened back on multiple devices: speakers plugged into Mac 1/8" audio port, Apple Earbuds plugged into 1/8" audio port, and two different pairs of Bluetooth headphones. The only playback where I canNOT hear it is trying to listen directly from the Mac's crappy built-in speakers, because I can't hear that level of detail from those speakers. The noise is not there when I play in the rest of the range of the alto sax at any volume, or in any range of the tenor sax at any volume. As in the recording, the noise is not present on the first 2 notes, only the last three. I'll re-do some of the tests I did before at different volumes and distances, as well as trying some other instruments in the same range, and share them here, just haven't had a chance yet. [/QUOTE]
