I have a problem that I would love to solve ... so if you have any ideas I would really appreciate it. I was bought up with macs - so don't really know how to trouble shoot XP.
The problem .... When I do any of the things listed below audio often distorts loudly for approx 2 - 10 seconds. When the noise stops things work fine ( until the next time I make any changes )
* when I open a song in Live and press play
* when I click on a new clip in session view while a song is playing or when I play a different scene.
* changing patches or altering controls in plugins - especially Cameleon and Reaktor ( also happens using Reaktor in stand alone mode )
Using Reaktor in stand alone just now I noticed the following in Windows Task Manager -
CPU Usage - typically 50% - but drops to 30% whan the audio is distorting
Memory usage 158MB - well below the 500 MB
Increasing the driver latency does not improve things - even if you set it to 100ms
Any ideas ?
Thanks, Steve.
