Default is there a way to reduce the USB data noise?

Hi,

just got my TI (used snow) a few weeks ago. It's excellent and the way it works in Logic/Live is pretty seemless... loving it...

Anyway, I have to say though, I immediately noticed the constant "background" data noise generated when in USB mode.

I'm not referring to pops, spikes or bursts that some people have mentioned, it works fine in both Live and Ableton for me...

I'm just wondering if there's a way to reduce (of if Access has acknowledged this anywhere and has a solution of some kind) for the constant data noise it generates.

Using the MIDI jack and analog outs produces no noise so it's obviously a byproduct of using the USB. This is actually understandable: I had a Fantom and when in USB mode it had the exact same problem, a constant low level data noise. Roland had a ferrite cable available that would filter out the noise for the Fantom and it worked great.

Has anyone tried using a ferrite USB cable and if so does it reduce any of the noise? Any solutions?

Thanks.....
