I recently redid my setup with a new laptop and monitor and started getting noise through my interface. This is my setup:
I went through and plugged in items alone 1 by 1 until the noise happened. The culprits were the monitor, and the Yamaha keyboard. Both the keyboard and the interface have MIDI ports, so I'm going to try that instead of USB.
The monitor however, is a different mystery:
I have 2 of the same model dock which both behave the same.
Does anyone have any suggestions? The monitor is a brand new Acer, that I bought from Micro Center along with an extended replacement plan (it's a really nice 42in monitor), but not sure who I should contact. I obviously cant use it for what I do but it's not broken in a traditional sense which makes me think they won't do anything.

The monitor however, is a different mystery:
- Any output from the dock into any input on the monitor causes noise
- Plugging into the laptop HDMI directly is fine
- My TV and my friend's monitor plugged into the dock are fine
