Upon connecting the Blofeld to a USB port of my computer I hear a muted humming coming from the audio outputs.

Answer

There are several possible reasons for that:
  • The power supply of your computer is out of order and needs replacing. 
  • The power supply or a component of your computer is generating a USB ground loop. You can fix that with a galvanic separation of the audio cables with a passive DI-Box for example. 
Othe rsolution: Use the MIDI port. The MIDI signal is optically separated inside the device which prevent any interferences.
