Input Audio randomly going fuzzy/static...


Joshua Magallanes

Question

I've got the latest version of Cakewalk installed on my Dell XPS 15 7590 and I'm using a plug&play USB sound card/adapter thing. Thankfully there aren't any latency or lag issues when monitoring BUT randomly any sound being input will start to sound fuzzy, almost static like until I hit play or turn monitoring or recording off and back on (who knows what else does it too) but it's not even 10 seconds before it goes back to crap again.

 

I'm so frustrated. I can't keep using my old computer - it's starting to give me problems with Cakewalk which is why I bought a new computer but it hasn't proved to be any easier or helpful at all. So much for an upgrade!

 

Help. Anybody, please?

Sounds like a latency issue causing the break up. In most cases this isn't apparent when just playing audio. It's when recording that the issues show up. Are you using low latency ASIO driver mode in cakewalk ?
