YNWBUGNAR Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 I'm pretty new to cakewalk and have been enjoying it so far. Although over time, the program gets more and more buggy. Recently a new issue is occurring where a buzzing/static noise plays while im in my project. it's present even when nothing is playing. Is there any way I could fix this, I've searched everywhere online but can't find a consistently working solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron Dickens Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Most likely it's a bad connection somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris.r Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Sounds like a ground loop. If you're using a laptop try to disconnect the charger for a moment and see if the buzzing disappear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron Dickens Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Almost certainly not a Cakewalk issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Vere Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 (edited) You need to supply more details if you want a solution faster. computer? audio interface? are you using 3rd party plug ins. Do you have proper balanced connections via an interface to studio monitors? is this just a laptop with computer speakers? Or try this solution.

bitflipper Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Could be a lot of things, unfortunately. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) from a nearby appliance, for example. We'll need more clues in order to help. One thing it's definitely not is a Cakewalk bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YNWBUGNAR Posted August 16, 2021 Author Share Posted August 16, 2021 my computer is a asus g751jt laptop and the only third party plugin ive used so far is voloco, which has given me no problems in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bitflipper Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 It's probably not a plugin, either. Easy way to check: create a new (empty) project and see if the noise is still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Vere Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 So you still gave absolutely nothing in the way of detail! Ic you truly want a quick answer supply as much information as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myriad Rocker Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Other than what bitflipper suggested, I'd recommend that you download Reaper and check if the buzzing is there as well. That is, if you're adamant that it's a Cakewalk issue. Process of elimination. I also believe it's something in your signal chain or buzz from a power source. Potentially something on the same circuit you're on or your laptop psu, as already suggested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gswitz Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 I had a case where turning one plug around fixed a buzz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
