Matthew Carr Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Hi, Just built a new PC rig around a Ryzen 9 7900 (64GB Ram, 4TB SSD, Windows 11, Behringer XR18 as Audio Interface) Latency Mon is all fine, but I find I'm getting awful crackles and pops - this screenshot was taken when playing a simple project that was crackling My experience is that crackles and pops are normally DPC Latency issues, but this has me a bit stumped. The strange thing is even if I knock the Asio buffer upto 2048 I still get the crackles.. Anyone have any experience, or suggestions? Have done all the usual: No wifi, Ultimate performance plan, disable onboard audio, reinstalling ASIO drivers etc My ancient previous rig together with the XR18 worked without a flaw, was just a bit slow to open large projects.. Thanks in advance! Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xoo Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 What audio interface? On my (older) Ryzen system, I went through a phase where I had to connect my USB MOTU to a USB 2 port, not USB 3, else I got some weirdness (fixed at some point with BIOS/Windows update).

I'm using a Behringer XR18 as my audio interface... might be worth trying it on some other USB ports though, so thanks for the idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoveCamper Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 I have owned the XR18 for a couple of years now with no problems. When I first used it I noticed in Cubase and Windows 10 that the only sample rate settings available to me was 48khz even though the manual quoted you should have 44.1khz and 48 khz available. I have been on 48khz with no problems so I have just left it like that. So you might check your sample rates in your DAW and the XR18 to make sure that they are the same. Here is a Reddit page with someone with a similar problem. https://www.reddit.com/r/Behringer/comments/ut0hlo/xr18_only_48khz_sample_rate_available_in_windows/ Good luck finding the problem.

Lee D Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 (edited) When do you get crackles and pops? And you have the correct ASIO driver selected in Cakewalk? Could it be clipping or something being set too loud? Edited September 15, 2023 by Lee D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Carr Posted September 28, 2023 Author Share Posted September 28, 2023 Thanks for the responses, and sorry for the late follow up - have slowly been changing things around and believe the issue came down to a dodgy USB cable, Gah!!...😡 The new build is working well now, so I'm a happy chappy! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
