I have an Computer ACER aspire 8930, Processor is
Intel (R) Core (TM)2 Duo T5800 @ 2.00 GHz 2.00 GHZ 4.00 GB Vista
32-bit Operating System as per computer details but I thought it was 64 must check that ??
Cakewalk sonar 7 home studio FOR about 4 weeks now NIL before that,
Audiobox USB Presonus Cost approx $180 with choice of mic and inst channel, two out lines and ear phone.
Dropouts not showing a consistent pattern except that they are very very frequent
I may get 4 measures or up to 20 approx. Twice it seemed all ok
got a few full songs and up to 4 tracks approx.
32 bit play and record at that time then all droppingout again. Second time
it was at 512 got a few songs. Then all dropping out again.
I have played !! with the settings for some weeks. I always disable the
internet button.
I have tried very hard to disable AVG virus full protection
BUT interestingly enough on the last occasion that all was ok and not dropping out (record and play) all was turned on incl internet and virus pack.
I have changed all scheduling and tried to stop unnecessary programmes.
Today I as usual tried the task manager and there were two distinctly different
occurrences
1. sonar rose from 2 -3 % CPU to some 20% and over and sudden or slow
stagger to dropout
so I thought it must be sonar !! later I checked again
2. there were the usual dropouts but sonar was not changing to the high cpu usage which of course accompanied each frequent dropout BUT
and I failed completely to locate any other area in the task mgr
where there was an significant increase. Audiograph was in fact going from
0% to 5 approx. This is a lengthy Explanation so excuse it.
I have not noticed great differences between different settings but
it did improve when I used the ext sound usb presonus but dropouts
were still very frequent. I do switch off the other items like mike line etc in sound mgr control panel. Tried reset config in audio and many settings !!!
Any help on this all too prevalent universal problem would be appreciated. bANJORICHE
