In the last week I started hearing a very loud chirping sound just show up intermittently. Many times while the transport is stopped, It sounds like digital 1 cycle sawtooth wave metronome, very staccato. it's 166 BPM 1/8 notes,
It's constant and won't stop until I close the CbB CWP song file. I have this sound recorded if any one would like to hear it.
It appears to be hardware related, because I can revert to an old image file months ago before I heard this sound and it appears there too. CbB has to be open for it to occur. Even Sonar Platinum does it. I thought it was my Ultralite AVB, but I turned it off and installed my old Layla 24 sound card and it happened with it also.
I thought I had it solved by deleting all Kontakt soft synths from the synth rack, and that seemed to help quite a lot but then it came back today even with Kontakt gone. Yet is was better.
I'm beginning to think it's possibly a computer error notification. It doesn't sound like the CbB metronome. Is there any kind of computer testing I can do that may show what this is?
If anyone has any clues or experience with a sound like this. Where is it coming from: CbB, the computer, USB ports, bad SATA cable, high temperature or what? If anyone has an ideas, please chime in. I'm baffled.
