Stupid shrinkwrapper...
Hey. So on the bottom floor of our studio, we have shrinkwrapping machine that cuts the plastic to the correct size using heat. Now, up in the studio, every time the shrinkwrapper is pressed down, you can hear a buzz in the monitors (this buzz gets recorded too if you would be recording) So we are looking for a solution so that we can be recording and shrinkwrapping at the same time... Does anyone know what the problem is, or how we could go about fixing it? If we were to hire an electrician, I wouldnt even really know what the problem was to tell him. Im sure someone has asked a similar question before, so please excuse me if that is the case. THANKS for any help!

Is the wrapper plugged into a standard wall outlet, or does it have a special type of connection?
Does the wrapper have any kind of heat control that can be adjusted?
If it's a standard 120 volt plug, have you tried a different outlet?
If you try a filter, you may need TWO - one to plug the wrapper into, and one for all your studio gear (or more, depending on your wiring setup) - the one at the wrapper will cut down on the amount of noise getting into your main wiring, and the others will further reduce the noise that's left...
