Thank you so much for your answer!

The noise is ever present in Linux as soon as it is initiated. The noise is slightly better the higher sample frequency in Jack, but even without jack there is static noise and crackles. I just realised that I I have not checked whether this is on the headphone outlets only - but this seems unlikely since we had the problem on the recording the other day even after exporting to another computer with another interface. I'll check it though.

Thanks!

This is a very specific issue and I can't help with that unfortunately, but I have been using the smaller version (M-Audio Fast Track Mk II) at home without any issues for years now. However, it does not like odd values in JACK (e.g. 44,1 kHz or frame rates that are not the power of 2), then it will produce crazy noises once in a while.

Maybe your problem is similar and a configuration issue? To narrow it down: What happens when you turn JACK off and run the card regularly through ALSA/Pulseaudio? I wouldn't do serious recordings that way, but does that get rid of the noise at least?
