I'm getting noise when I use my DJ controller and I'm pretty sure it's from the USB cable or bad shielding from the unit. I have a fairly complicated setup, and I've trouble shooted different USB cables, RCA cables, and power sockets that feed my pc / speakers. The issue only happens when the controller is plugged in via usb and still persists even if I don't have the RCA connected to my soundcard. Specifically, it's worse when the LED lights in the unit flash (when in standby mode).
I've seen a lot of similar problems on the pioneer forum but the support sucks, claiming it's not an issue their end, and it doesn't happen when people use macs.
The best solution I've seen is this guy who made a USB cable that separated the data and the power https://forums.pioneerdj.com/hc/en-...y_id=200133289#community_comment_115000075123 . Other solutions have been to use RCA ground loop isolators, and I've spent hours on youtube looking at USB isolators like the ifi, jitterbug and hifime adapters - but I'm still at a loss what the best solution would be.
My question to you is what is the best way to fix this issue and for the cheapest?
