DO NOT MIX monitor and sound

Bought this monitor as an upgrade for a semi-pro recording studio along with a new Macbook Pro connected to a T3 docking station. After everything booted up, my audio and MIDI completely exploded due to static noise and timing issues. I literally spent over a month troubleshooting my new computer and all my audio/midi hardware to figure out why there was noise over the audio and MIDI was a total mess. It was only by accident that I realized that this monitor was the source of the noise issues, meaning it was generating a lot of static through the DP and/or HDMI cables and running through my system. Second, I unplugged this monitor - my audio issues are gone. I've never been more frustrated in my life than you'd expect a monitor to just 'work', and now I'm stuck with it because my return window has expired. I had no idea or even thought that the monitor might "interfere" with the sound, but this monitor is "dirty" in that regard, so if that's your application. DO NOT buy this monitor. You will regret it. If you just want a good screen, it works great. .
