Question about ASIO buffer size

Post by Audity » Wed Jan 04, 2012 4:16 pm

When I start Ableton Live 8, everything is fine. After maybe 5-10 minutes, though, I start getting the odd snap, crackle and pop. From then, it gradually gets worse and worse. The way I have to stop it is to open the ASIO (v2) control panel and close it again. This seems to reset whatever it is causing the problem and buys me another 5-10 minutes before the problem returns.

I'm using an audio buffer size of of 256 samples. I have tried increasing to the maximum 2048 samples but the problem persists.

What might be causing this?

What audio interface are you using? Do you have the latest drivers for it?
