Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

A simple step is to put the instrument on the same exact power that the
mixer is; plug them in to the same power strip. Any differences in
potential between the grounds can cause a ground loop and "buzz" on the
audio lines. Studios that have lots of different surge suppressors
plugged in to different power circuits usually have a lot of noise this
way.

With an amp involved, same sort of problem. They should be as much on
the same power circuit as possible.
