Hi.  Not really sure where to pose this question, but since I'm using the Studio 2.6c I figured I would try here.  I installed all hardware and software and everything is working great.  The problem I have is not related to the products, but my PC (which everything is plugged into) makes noise which gets picked up by the microphone.  Is there a product or solution anyone knows of that can help with this?  How does everyone else deal with this, I can't be the only one to experience this.

Thanks.

Sounds like you might want to look into a quiet case and moving all your PC guts into it. They help but aren't silent. This might help you get started https://soundproofgeek.com/best-silent-quiet-pc-case-computer/ You might want check to make sure all filters are clear of dust, if they are dirty your PC will run hotter/ more fan noise. Check what is making the racket, if it's just one or two fans replace them. If it's the fan on the CPU you can get a heatsink/fan to upgrade that should help your cpu's temps as well as noise. As of course try and move the PC as far away from the mic as possible.
