Default Electrical Interference w/ sound clip - please help?

Hi,

I am getting some kind of electrical interference when going direct in with my guitar or bass. I am going through a DMP3 into a Line 6 gearbox DI. I tried plugging right into the gearbox, and also tried changing cords and instruments, and I still had the interference. I haven't recorded DI in a while, but this happened the last time I tried to as well. I was adjusting my bass intonation with a screwdriver, not sure if somehow this could cause something to go haywire?? It seems unlikely given that I changed instruments and cords and it was still doing it.

The interference comes and goes...it'll be there for 30-60 seconds then stop for a similar amount of time and start up again. Needless to say this makes it a little difficult to try and record.

If anyone could provide any help it would be greatly appreciated. The sound can be heard here (recorded while plugged into my bass):

Thank you,
