Getting distorted audio

[Frank DeFede]

I have a Personus Studio 24, and Cakewalk by Bandlab. Today when I went to open Cakewalk, it loaded slowly and then when it finally loaded my project it just spun. I had to restart.  This time it finally got into the project, but it played the audio distorted.  Usually I can fix this the few times that it has happened by opening the Universal control for the Presonus Studio 24 and changing the buffer size, but when I pull down the buffer option then try to set it the numbers come up, but when I select any of them they do not populate the screen. I think it may be running at 0.

I don't know, maybe I am chasing my tail here, thinking that it's the buffer. .  My system usually works.  I was getting ready to make 1 final change in the project, and export it to another studio  to add live drums and do a final mix. 

Can anyone please make a suggestion what you may think the problem is?

Thank you in advance!

My only realistic suggestion would be to use S1 no more stupid issues. Im afraid Cakewalk has become abandon ware.

What happens if you rename your "%AppData%\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core\AUD.ini" file? (While CBb is closed)

Thank you for the suggestion.  I did a search for  "%AppData%\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core\AUD.ini"  If comes up with AUD.INI.  Should I change it to  "%AppData%\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core\AUD.ini"

Thanks

Thank you for responded.  I had already tried that, but it didn't work.  I tried it again with your suggestion, but again it didn't work.  I wonder if it could be my personus Studio 24 problem. I have the most up to date drivers on the device, and also in Windows. Everything was working a few days ago.

If you have any other ideas please let me know.

Thank you,

Frank

So you are saying that it still doesn’t work even when paired with S1 or another Daw?  That most certainly implies that the hardware has an issue.

There’s a sub forum for Presonus hardware on the user forum. 
studio one forum. com 

Might be help available there.

Hi John,

Yes, I tied S1 and S2.  I have an old Cakewalk Sonar v-studio 100. I will try it now.  I was thinking it was hardware too because I can’t change the buffers size in the personus control.panel. 

Maybe this could be the problem ***** it also is freezing. Let me ask you this.  When I go into the task manager, to close it there are 2 different icons.  One is red 32 bit the other is blue 32 bit.  My shortcut on my desk top is the blue one that I have always used. Does that indicate a problem?  I wonder if everyone has both of them?

Thank you so much for your time and responding!
