High-Pitched sound in recordings and speakers with a Zoom-R16 when connected USB-Ethernet

I admire you ingenuity and hard work frien but why did you not mouny all the swiches and connectors on in a metal box? Aluminium is only a little harder to dril than wood (?)

And whilst is is perfectly acceptable to wire everthing in single, unscreened cable the whole lot should be enclosed in a earthed box. Unscreened wires will also crosstalk (actually, screened is not THAT much better. Key to low Xt is as low a source impedance as you can get sub 100 Ohms if possible. )

Best you can do is make sure 'outputs don't run parallel to 'inputs and whist keeping wires short seems admirable better to have them long enough to stay tight to the metal box (whch of course we do not have!) As it is you have an 'array' Jodrell Bank would be ptoud of!

I have to say I am with the others in that I don't quite see the function? Sorry to be so pessimistic but I really do think that system needs to be better engineered.

I've been using this box for years now, to rip Streaming multi-channel audio, and it works like a charm. The quality is extremely high. I'm not sure any of you have the ability to play multi-channel FLAC files or the equipment to do so. And if I did share one, I feel like I would be breaking the law. So I won't share any. Now that you can't really find physical media like I did back during the time when I built this device, I'm sure glad I have it.

Could it be designed better? Maybe, but it does work. I am very picky when it comes to audio, so believe me, generally it is the 'Streaming' quality that is the issues, not the wires-cross talking, or my equipment, or I don't believe my design is at fault. When I'm relying on Amazon to give me 5.1 audio... on some movie, that's usually where my quality issue lies. However, usually a newer movie from Disney+ will result in a higher quality recording.
