I've been sampling a lot latley and I realized that my samples have a lot of electric feedback from the sample... I've tried lowering the volume from the table... and I use the PT-01 (Numark). Any Suggestions....

Try a different cable. Also, the PT01 isn't meant to be sampling from... it is going to have some noise. Mine works fine though. I'd bet it is the cable you are using.

or your record gain is too high.

Also feedback usually stems from a piece of equipment not being "grounded." The sad part is I heard that u cant ground that type of turntable so u might be stuck.

Wrap your ground wire around a Choke coil that you can get from Radio shack. Communication equimpent like Digital office phones use these on like the power supplies that plug into the bases...Looks like a Black Ring or sleeve.

u might also have dirty power i am sampling from a grounded technics and i have line noise. I am going to buy a power conditioner and it also filters the electical current and cleans it ;my friend showed me it take the ground loops out of the signal they are nice you can find a 10 outlet for 180 if u search. and you can plug a power strip in the outlets on the unit to gain more plug ins. If you need a cheaper soultion look at a small hum elimantor you can plug your turntale out put into it and it should take out the line noise. but try the cable first.

you might want to fiddle around with your gain setting as well as volume settings on your equipment. if one is too high to compensate for another being too low it can create noise.
