Sudden gaps in audio playback?

[shane]

Yes. Each "tap" (A or B) can have its own time and filter settings. This allows for wide stereo use. 

The real magic for me is the 2x, 4x, and 8x which changes the playback clock and lowers the fidelity accordingly. Also, the FREEZE button can be fun.

Soundtoys did a pretty good job of modelling all the parts of the original, so you get saturation/distortion at multiple points in the signal path.

Slight bump of this thread, since its relevant. 

It seems the newest beta 2023.09 build 062 has somehow re-introduced the crackling and audio gaps with Soundtoys plugins. 

Disabling them allows crisp and clear audio, while enabling them brings back cracking. 

 

Has anyone else noticed this happening with the latest beta?

Do you have Next installed on your system? Of yes, remove it completely and reinstall CbB and try again. I only had to remove Next without doing a reinstall of CbB, but im just throwing it out there.

Thanks Will, but I haven't installed Next 

Also havent tried previous versions of Soundtoys. 

Anyone else having these issues on the last beta?

I’m still on the version before latest beta, with the intermittent dropouts. Wish they’d fix it. I have the entire suite in Soundtoys 5 and can’t use them. They were a go-to for all sorts of things.

hey @Billy86 did you download the Soundtoys beta? The beta totally cured all gaps/glitching before this latest version of Cakewalk

[Billy86]

@shane I looked on the site in my account, but couldn't find where to download the Soundtoys 5 beta, with all the components? Thought I'd just wait for the official release, but it's been a long time to wait.

Here is a link to the full download:

While I would hope a pending fix from them would resolve any issues, but can we please refrain from publicly listing beta installers for third party companies here? Thanks!

[shane]

Downgraded to build 55 and the problem persists. 
It's now CPU spiking on projects that previously werent. Anyone else having this issue?

I can't believe I don't know this: what is the proper way to uninstall the latest beta Cakewalk and revert to the previous version?

Is it just to re-install the previous version?

Does the beta install next to CbB or overwrite it?
If it overwrites, you can't roll back. You also can't install the previous version, and even if that was possible, in would be unreactivatable after a few months, whatever the activation period is/was. The latest is the lastest and the onliest.

[shane]

I believe it overwrites it, but figured I'd ask here.

Also; I think re-installing the previous version is good enough, but again wanted to ask.
