Creality K1 Intermittent Buzzing (streamable.com)

TLDR: is the buzzing in linked video normal / okay / expected? If not, is there a way to fix it?

I’ve just been putting my Creality K1 through it’s paces, and after using up all the hyper PLA that came with the unit, started printing some inland black basic PLA. Since then, I’ve noticed some buzzing sounds on either pure x axis or pure y axis moves. Video attached showcasing it. It doesn’t seem to create any buzzing on infill moves or perimeters that have a radius. Any straight lines though seem to cause the buzzing. Prints seem okay (though inout shaper seems off for sure looking at corners). I don’t remember it happening with the hyper PLA which I printed at the same speed (I am printing the black inland at higher temp to compensate for reduced flow).

Thanks for any help or feedback! Enjoying the community on Lemmy here so far :)

Also, I am planning on purchasing some more hyper PLA to see if I can observe the same buzzing with that filament. I can’t imagine the filament type would cause the buzzing, but strange things do happen. Will report back here with any findings on that, but if anyone else has any thoughts in the meantime on this buzzing, I’m very keen to hear them!
