This isn't a huge project... just an audio channel and two sequenced tracks (drums and bass). If ...

I have to get my overall latency up over 20ms to get rid of the cracks and pops, and even then I still hear the occasional slight crackle. Anything under 600 samples or under 20ms starts to turn into pure digital distortion.
