Clicks in clips after applying v-vocal

[Mo Jonez]

After applying V-vocal to clips and making some minor adjustments I'm getting a lot of clicks in the resulting clips.  The original clips are click free.

Would it be CPU or RAM related?  I tried it in a new project that has no other tracks or fx or anything using up CPU or RAM power and still getting a clicking result. 

Could be ASIO buffer setting related, but have also played around with different buffer settings and problem still exists.

Any ideas?

Rules of using V-Vocal (or any pitch-processor):

• Process single clips at a time
• Keep your clips as short as feasible, minimum  length
• Avoid substantial or sudden changes in pitch (curves or ramps are good)
• Render will mute the original clip and create a new one, but still, be wary of accidentally deleting the original. Always keep the original clip archived, just in case you change your mind
• Don't leave multiple instances of V-Vocal active on a track as you continue working. Render as you go

If the rendered clip contains defects:

• try repeating the operation in an otherwise empty project, to reduce possible CPU or memory problems (worth a try)
• try increasing audio buffers (i.e. increased latency, but you're not recording in real-time so it's fine to do this temporarily)
