I may be able to deal with it though. Does anyone know how I can filter out an ultra high EQ such as this "hissing" in a program such as cakewalk? Without affecting the other audio of course...

Hi James
What you have is a Properoprietory System .
Which is where the modem or sound card ect,is,
wiered into the Motherboard.This means,
you can't replace the cards with just any card.bummer
I can't help you with filtering out the hissing but,
i'll try to talk to a few other tecs i know and see what,
they say.
In the meantime if it worked before without the hissing,
You might checkout the poeple who make cakewalk to see,
if anybody else ever had this problem.
Also try to think back before this problem started and,
see if you've changed any thing on your pc or added other,
software or changed something in cakewalk.
you could also have something siting close to your,
pc which could cause the hissing sound.
