what does it mean when the device "buzzes" - like an extended "beep"?

That is the 5 second timer. It will start up once you have made a connection.It can be triggered accidentally but is designed to prevent you over zapping yourself. !!

Electronic beep on the note C, sounding somewhat like a garbage truck in reverse. A distracting sound if you're trying to listen to your tone or intonation.

Yeah, i have the same buzzing noise. I took the car to a car-audio professional store and they told me that the sound is from the device, not from the car because sounds even with the engine off.It starts to annoy me a lot, if you know what could be the solution i will appreciatte.

it's an alarm, sort of like constant beeping and it can be set for low or high.

When the clock is in count down mode it lets out a loud "beep" when the time is up.

It beeps upon placing the device on the charger to ensure you know it's charging, but then the light just flashes as it charges. No further beeping.

David C. The only sound that is made is the ones that let you know the unit is on/off/bad battery. These are simple beeps and a light indicator. During operation in the field...nothing, Great product! Mine is over two years old and is still going with no issues other than new batteries. Tom

It is an electronic beep in the upper frequencies, but not at all painful. There is a volume control on the top of the device (not shown in the picture). The metronome is also capable of a different beep to denote beat 1 of a given meter. Hope this helps!

No. Are you using the 3.5mm jack? This can sometimes cause a buzzing sound if not inserted all the way. Or if the phone is charging with the 3.5mm jack also plugged in.

Did you ever get an answer? Mine appears to be buzzing all the time too - I agree. Extremely annoying.

For me, the beep tells me the device is working. If I did not hear that noise, I would probably wonder if it is working,.at all.

I just checked...it beeps 5 times (along with scrolling a message that says "enjoy your meal").

The beep sound is to tell you that the unit is ready to fire again. You can deactive this feature if you wish by pressing the "BUZ" button

i hear this "beeping" as i describe it, as well, and have found others on youtube that experience this as well with this camera, it is quite annoying, although its not nearly as loud as you make it seem.. most people dont notice it even, but once you do it is quite annoying... i wondered if i got a defective unit but after finding many others that also have this it seems to be just how the camera is , i still have 20 some days to return it and i probably will because of this, oh well.

Hmmm. What does the screen look like? If you want just beep, you should have something like the number 75 next to the "beep" icon, 0 next to "vibrate" icon, and 0 next to "shock/lighting bolt" icon. Hope this helps.

The reason the unit beeps is because there is something close by causing interference with the wireless signal between the camera and the monitor. Another cause for this beeping is the distance the two devices are from each other or the amount of objects (walls, etc.) blocking the signal. I've experienced this beeping early on with the monitor. I had an issue with having my iPad too close to the unit causing my problems. Hope this helps. We've had ours for 2 1/2 years now.

If I charge it at the same time, it will have the buzzing sound. Otherwise, it is perfect and sound great.
