Noise issues with Scarlett 2i2

I'm using logic pro X on a mac computer. When I'm running a guitar just through the speakers via the direct monitor it sounds fine. Once I send the audio signal through logic it creates some digital "noise" (sounds like a bit crusher when I strum chords) that's not related to clipping, and happens with a instrument line or XLR mic input (yes, I made sure to switch the input to the corresponding type). The problem also seems to get worse the longer the program is open.

The interface worked fine on a friend's computer using logic 9, so surely there is something I am doing wrong. I resintalled all the drivers and plug in's, swapped the interface for a new unit pretty much everything Focusrite recommends and still I can't seem to figure this problem out. It seems like maybe there is some sampling or bit rate setting in Logic that needs to be changed, but I can't figure it out. Someone please help!! Thanks
 
You've done a lot of troubleshooting ...even taking the interface to a friends. It worked there so that's great partitioning of the problem.
So #1 you know the interface is fine.
#2 You know the guitar and cable is good as it sounds fine during Monitoring

software is left and it appears you need to determine if its the mac or daw.
