Recording Live input through FX problems

Hi,
I'm trying to bring in an input signal through some FX on one channel and then record the proceessed audio in real time on a seperate track which takes its input from the first. I'm getting a lot of pops and click in the audio. Even if I set the latency very high I still get the same result. I think this happens more with 3rd party FX and less with Live's FX but stilil. This is with only these two tracks in a session, not with a bunch of other stuff going on at the same time.
I'm on a Powerbook 1.25 GHz with 512 MB of Ram live 4.0.4 I think. Audio card is an M-Audio firewire 410.

Thanks,
Brian

I had that problem once. I think I just went ahead and recorded anyway, and later on playback the pops went away somehow. So, maybe try that. Hmmm. Pretty lame advice, eh?

Try sending the track/clip output to a Send where you place the FX

Now set the record Input on another clip from the Send

So you will need two audio tracks (and maybe 1 midi) and the Send

Yeah It seems to work better using the Auxes but there is still some popping...
