Open up your computer to check usb connection make sure the connection is good and dust free
or you might have to clean the dust using a fine air blower from a compressor making VERY sure that there is no MOISTURE in the air line specifically around the CPU central processing unit and your sound card dust causes static to build up in a computer causing it to overheat any many other problems
be sure to wear an anti static earth strap before touching anything inside your computer
hope this helps

    I have a similar issue with mine. I've had the Fast Track USB for 3 years, and have recorded many times with it, using XP, and Vista and have had no issues until now. I've recently purchased a new computer, Dell Latitude E6410, windows 7, 32 bit. I now get static sometimes when using the Fast Track. I'm using FLStudio, and even when I use ASIO4All through my Fast Track, I occasionally get the static. When I disconnect the Fast Track and use ASIO4ALL, no static at all. It sounds to me like it's a driver issue with windows 7. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Jeff.

    again check the usb connection inside/outside your computer ot it might be a fault with the windows7 and the fast track usb compatability problem/issue
    click start control panel,administrive tools,computer management,device manager,sound video and game controllers could be a yellow question mark? right click you will have options to update driver software disable uninstall scan for hardware changes and properties if you select properties then under the general tab you will see if your device is working properly under the driver tab you will have options to see the driver details also update driver roll back disable uninstall if you select the details tab there will be an array of details from the property drop down list hope this will help you

Recording quality just went downhill fast.

Make sure your computer audio is NOT set to "echo" as this will loop the audio back out. This setting can sometimes get set by whatever... it happens.

Connecting an M Audio Fast Track USB to a Behringer XENYX 1002

I suppose that you connect the behringer mixer master out (just one of the two channels in case of two) to the guitar input of the Fast Track. Have you tried to hear your mic from the phones output at the front panel of the Fast Track? Try changing the guitar gain and the output level at the top of the Fast track.

I'm waiting for your results or clarification, please post.

Thanks and regards

My pioneer deh-p5500mp Car Radio

hmm.. thats a nice radio, not too shaby heheh...

Well your car radio should have a Blue wire with a white stripe for the remote, in case you are interested in the user manual (wich im guessing you dont have)

Go to:
http://www.nodevice.com/user_manual/pioneer/car_audio/deh-p5500mp.html

it has a diagram of the harness and it shows a blue/white remote wire, so im guessing that you bought it used and probably got a different harness with your car radio... but then again thats too weird

you could do a check to see if thats really the problem... just feed 12V From the power terminal of your amp to the remote terminal, that should turn your amp on and you should be able to listen to your car radio's output (id suggest not setting the volume all the way up when doing this XD)

Hope it helps

Static shock possibly fry my soundcard?

Static shock can fry your sound card from electro static discharge and it can also fry other PC components try another set of headphones in the pack of the PC. Or another pair of speakers rather than using your monitor and see what happens.

No sound in playback (but can hear click track)

This might seem simple, but just to check: you have switched off the monitor on the track when you go to playback? With track monitor engaged, you will not hear playback, but will continue to hear the live monitor.
