Are you getting feedback or a noise burst?

i guess you can call it a noise burst sounds more like what im hearing.kinda like to signals fighting but only when i turn it too digital in or wordclock, im using internal and theres no problem there just want o know if this something to be concerned about?

Can you record what your hearing and let us hear it too?

Instead of us just guessing.

Not to call you dumb or anything BUT.

Why are you turining it to Digital IN or Wordclock?
-Do you have something feeding them a signal?
-Is it set for the correct properties to match the 4k or that the 4k can even understand?

When you change thesettiong you are asking it to lock to an external digital clock, so you need it to be present and of the proper format.

Some devices won't lock to anything but the correct signal while some others try to but get the noise burst based on the incorrect aspect.

Can you give a routing config on how everything is hooked up digitally?
