I have my first project it is a Rane CP64 PA and it hums out the speakers in both zones without any inputs plugged into it. It is a loud hum. I am assuming it has to do with the power supply portion of the board but am unsure as I am a complete noob when it comes to testing components. Any help is greatly appreciated

Ground loop in the audio amp probably, that's the generic answer if you say loud him and speaker in the same sentence. How are the devices isolated?
