Wrap some heavy wool yarn around the ends of the string were slap occurs.

Check your beaver balls. I had one that was loose on the string and that was the cause of the buzzing. Try yarn puffs.

First...check the tiller on the bow. Sounds to me like the limbs are not recovering together.
Check it at the fadeouts on both limbs and see what the difference is. If the tiller is reasonbly correct, then rework brace height to find correct spot. Those Super Mags I believe like higher fistmeles due to the extreme deflex off the riser.

Is the stock string endless or flemish twist? If it's endless, I'd get a good flemish twist string right quick; endless strings (esp. factory jobs) are loud as hell.

a long shot, but recently shot a bow that had the same sound. you don't by chance have a limb tip protector on it?? the bow I shot had a leather one, it sounded like a bumblebee. took it off and problem solved. if applicable, hope this helps.
