You might try optimizing your NIC configuration as discussed in this topic: viewtopic.php?t=4127

Also, double check that the connection is running at 1 Gb/s (assuming you are using Protocol 2 firmware).

Hi Scott,
What graphic card are you running in your computer?

Today I tried another computer, my laptop. And got the same noise.
Posted a pic of potato settings does anyone see anything wrong?

I don't think it's relevant, but I'm running an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070. That is feeding triple 4K monitors via DisplayPort.

Your screen shot of network status does show a 1Gb/s connection, but it does not show if you've implemented any of the guidance in the NIC topic.

On the first channel with the mic input you do not have the B1 send turned on to route audio from that channel to Thetis.

On the second and third virtual channels you have the A2 and A3 sends activated, these should be turned off.

On the first virtual channel you have the A1 send routing audio from Thetis to your Presonus speaker outputs, so that it good.

Ok going to look at the properties of nic-card and make sure the settings are as recommended.

Hi Scott,
I have the nic card config network setting as follows. But the other settings I believe are default once the sequence errors were corrected, I had left them default since all worked. Such as flow control etc.

Jay,

See my reply to your thread in Richie's Discord server.

The problem is circled in the pic below, the explanation is in Discord.

The other day I was trying to record my radio session with AMD adrenalin software and I had a DirectX error and my panadapter disappeared, but I was still receiving and noticed that the distortion was not there when an app was maximized over Thetis. Now the error probably happened because I was playing with AMD software settings. But the noise not showing its head was a nice surprise. I have again started using split display and just keep Thetis in its own display. That was my fix.
But thanks to all who helped.

Enjoy the DX...
