So I noticed today when trying to record using a profile with a few distortion modules that I get a lot of feedback when near my audio interface (which I record from). Any ideas why this is?
It's also when using a humbucker pickup. Do audio interfaces have something in them that react with coils in pickups or something?
It's loudest when my back and back of my guitar is to the audio interface, and goes away when I turn to the left 45 degrees or so. I'm sitting about 2 feet from the inteface which is a Steinberg UR22.
Any feedback (pardon the pun) on this would be great!
Why am I getting feedback from my audio interface?

Are you playing your interface through studio monitors and getting the feedback? Also, check to make sure you don't have the mic preamp on for your instrument input.

Are you sure it's feedback? Sounds like you may be getting some EMF noise amplified through the pickups. The interface is USB based, which can sometimes cause a high-pitched whine.

If this is only happening on input 2, I would try pressing the Hi-Z button as humbuckers will have a higher output than single coils.

Hi-Z is for connecting a guitar directly to the interface only.
The PROFILER has line level outputs, therefore the input of the audio interface should be set to linbe level as well.
