Noisy Aux Channel on DP 5
I'm trying to record an Absynth track using the Aux channel, but it's incredibly noisy. Even when I disable the Absynth plug in I still hear the noise. Any idea what could be causing it?

I'd take a look at your input and buss bundles to make sure there isn't a permanent bleed somewhere.

In DP5, read page 185 for starters.

Maybe a blown valve

Re: Noisy Aux Channel on DP 5
It means, "go through all your bundles that pass audio and make sure they're all assigned properly and also checking the signal flow and use of these busses in your project".
You could start by tracing the signal back from the problem and examining the assignments of the various busses (bundles) used. This would be my quick-fix suggestion, but I've always found it worthwhile to check all bundles as problems are often caused by the incremental shifting of a series of adjacent busses' assignments, usually due to the insertion of a new one or other spurious tweaks. FWIMBW, I keep all my bundles in graphic order so that I can easily pick up problems at a glance.
Might be worth trashing DP's prefs for good measure first and seeing what happens, IMHO.
