My Yamaha CS1x has the annoying habit of notifying me (with the help
of the mentioned clicks) of every move of its modulation wheel. I
don't remember if I ever tried to reproduce it with an external source
of CC#1 messages, but maybe your case is similar? I wouldn't suspect
MIDI cables to create such noises, rather an instrument.
