    novice question about noise in Sonar/MOTU 24i combo

    okay, I followed up and then deleted my replies cause they were long and I just tried something, I disabled the SB Live output driver, and plugged an output speaker into the phone jack of MOTU 24i, recorded, and got no clicks, it sounded nice. yesterday, I plugged a mic into the SB Live, and...

    novice question about noise in Sonar/MOTU 24i combo

    follow up addendumb: I rechecked the musicxp tweaks, and set rates to 48kHz, aligned buffers at 256 in MOTU and Sonar, ran wave profiler, and recorded voice with a mic rather than using my acoustic preamp in case there were sound issues from that. no more white noise, but the crackling is...

    novice question about noise in Sonar/MOTU 24i combo

    Hi, I have a lot of staticky click sounds when playing back anything that I've recorded lately in Sonar; when I export to .wav and play in media player, the sound isn't there; there is still white noise, but not the clicks. I am sorry to ask such a simple question, as I've run into this...

    Okay, clicks and pops I thought were gone...please clue me in..

    Yeah, this might sound silly, but I'm just using my dinky-ass system speakers to monitor what's going on (they actually sound pretty decent, and usually I'm just laying down basic ideas or pre-production stuff), and I don't know how to route things so my MOTU will send through those speakers, as...

    Okay, clicks and pops I thought were gone...please clue me in..

    damn, I'll try to guess what you'er talking about...MTC, is that Midi Time Clock or Code or something, anyway, I don't think I'm running it. Word Clock: what and where is it? I'm not sure about that. The record timing master is set to 24i's PCI-324 card, playback timing master to SOundblaster...

    pops and clicks, driver? settings? OS?

    Hi, I posted in Cakewalk forum as well, but realize that I may just be set up crappy or something. I get all kinds of static-y sound recording even a single guitar track. it hasn't always done this. 1.6 G P4 768M RAM MOTU 24i (324) Sonar XL 2.0 I've never reinstalled XP, have set buffers...

    Okay, clicks and pops I thought were gone...please clue me in..

    yes to both, although I don't really know what to do after running wave profiler, besides just playing with the slider, and even when I increase the latency to horribly high levels, I still get pops in my recording. The input meter doesn't peak, so I don't think it's an input level problem.

    Okay, clicks and pops I thought were gone...please clue me in..

    Yeah, I've done all the performance tweaks that I've found, have a MOTU 24i into a 1.6g P4 with 700-odd K ram, and have adjusted the buffers pretty high on the 24i, and have had some luck, but now, after a couple inactive months, have all this crap in the recording of a single guitar track...

    Somewhat Urgent Audio Problem (pleeze, pleeze help!)

    okay, one last question for now...what does "set to master" mean for the pc? is that the playback and recording master in audio options? cuz if so, my only options given are SBLive or PCI-324 (MOTU)...how do you set it to pc, for what, when? thanks for all the feedback

    Somewhat Urgent Audio Problem (pleeze, pleeze help!)

    thanks a bunch, folks. So, I have checked my MOTU for IRQ conflicts, and it said there were none...does that mean that it has it's own IRQ, or just that windows doesn't think there's a problem? I'm not sure how to look at IRQ assignments... So, setting buffers high like that is okay? are...

    Somewhat Urgent Audio Problem (pleeze, pleeze help!)

    OK, I managed to at least minimize the glitch...maybe..after tweaking god knows what, I plugged the power supply into a different outlet, and the glitch went away (recorded 6 channels, bass and 5 drum mics no problem). So I thought, great, all I have to do is give the computer it's own outlet...

    Somewhat Urgent Audio Problem (pleeze, pleeze help!)

    By "laying out", do you mean, rec but not playing? or playing but not rec? what does "set to master" mean for the converter or soundcard? All that I know is the rec/playback timing setting, and the options for that are either my MOTU PCI-324 or SoundBlaster...

    Somewhat Urgent Audio Problem (pleeze, pleeze help!)

    c'mon people!?! I'm pulling my hair out here, the bassist is all givin me dirty looks and sharpening his switch blade, and my girlfriend is reading the swingers section of the personals. what are some simple things I may have missed? Is it bad to have sonar not be on the C:/ drive w/ the...

    Somewhat Urgent Audio Problem (pleeze, pleeze help!)

    Hey, we have borrowed a decent board w/ outs for ch 1-8, and have to give it back, and are trying to get some decent recording done right now. I hooked the ch1-8 out, 2 aux out, 2 mon out, to my MOTU 24i, into the computer, which is a 1.6g P4, MSI 850Pro, 768M RDRAM, XP Pro, Sonar 2 XL. The...

    write error when burning from Sonar? (newbie)

    thanks again! I'll try that bounce to trac, it sounds like a good idea. I have managed to get some of the songs to fly, but I waste so many cdr's checking to see if this or that works. Sometimes it seems like the end of the clip causes the read error. ex: the song ends, there's applause, then...
