For Audio Recording,Hum ELIMINATOR.?

Should I attach the HUM-X hum eliminator to the wall outlet first or is it better i connect it to the multi-connector power strip all the electronics share?

Answer:
I looked up the info on their website.

I thought it was a low-power isolation transformer, but based on Ebaudio's description it is nothing more than a common mode LC filter, rated for 15 Amps.

There should be no problem using it on a whole power-strip.

BUT... this will not eliminate any ground loop that may exist between all the equipment that is connected to the power-strip (which shouldn't be a problem anyway, if your audio equipment is properly made). If you still have a problem with a ground-loop, you may have to isolate the offending amp, preamp, direct box, etc. and use the Hum-X on that, 'guy' alone.
