I am by no means an expert on this but I bet your min adapter isn't seating properly.  There's a link somewhere about griding down the bit of plastic above the optical/line in.  That is supposed to help the plug fit in all of the way securely.

I have already modded my JB3 with the dremel tool.

is that dremel mod necessary for optical linking as well?  or does the improperly seated cable channel-swapping issue only happen if you're running an analog cable into the jb3?

i've never had to do a disk cleanup but that may help.  Do you know anyone else w/ a jb3 or something that will take an optical input to run some tests to try to isolate UA5/jb3/cable.  When you did the dremel mod do you think you could have gotten some crap in there(canned air).  I'll shut up now cause i'm really shooting in the dark.

good luck

Please don't stop.  The ideas have me running back and checking the unit.  I do not know a soul around here who owns a JB3.

I did the dremel mod a couple months ago, and have recorded a bunch since then with no problems.

I will try a disc clean.

depends on your input cable.  YMMV but I cant see how any cable would ever seat properly in the input jack.  I don't think i even turned my JB3 on before i did this mod.

Out of curiosity, have you tried monitoring off the UA-5 to see if the sound is definitely happening between it and the jb3?  One time recently, I was running my UA-5 at 44.1, to a Sony D8, and I could hear this popping noise while in rec/pause mode.  It went away if I switched to 48khz.  I've never heard it since on either sampling rate.  Sometimes weird things happen.  *shrug*

GOT IT!!!  

I pulled the mini-plug out a bit until I felt a click.  Recorded 10 minutes of the Cincy ball game...POP FREE.

Thanks a ton for everyone's help!!  If the problem arises again, I will be sure to check back!

Thanks again.

Mike
