That is very possible. What type of noise is it? Is it your run of the mill 60hz hum? If so, you may want to get an isolation transformer (creates your own ground) or put all of your gear and your sound / amp / monitors / whatever on the same part of the circuit. I believe they also have grounding kits that you can buy at electronics stores depending on where you're at.
I just got my machinedrum. The only noise i get from my entire setup is from the sidstation.. but that noise is just delicious. :)
Have a good one!

Is it possible that this has something to do with a ground loop - improper
grounding in your household circuits? That might explain why some people
experience it and others don't.
Just a thought...
