I am getting a very odd glitchy audio effect on every channel's playback.

Well yes, some plugins will take more resources to run, though your i7 is more than capable of handling them. Reverbs and VSTi's tend to take the most. Things like delays and modulation, much less. I am still guessing it is your recording to the same drive as your OS is on, that is giving you havoc.

Then again, there are free plugins that can cause trouble as well. Usually, they just crash, but some use resources poorly, and can become hogs.
 
I deff trust you about recording to the same drive, so you keep all project files on the external drives? thats where you save everything? are they USB? and i think it might be a combination of the same drive and certain things for certain projects because i just opened up a huge project and its fine. hm.
 
Yes, and yes, they are both external USB 1TB Seagate drives.

At least you are finding out possible causes for your glitches. :)
 
Amen. Thank you so much, i will start saving my audio projects to a separate drive, that is perfect. thank you for all your help, you are great.
 
so just when i thought all is well, it is doing the same thing. But i started a new project and it only started happening once i began to add the bass guitar in. could it be a sub frequency that is giving that off? maybe something cant handle it?
 
Nope, audio devices do not care what frequency is recorded. Are you recording to a new project on an external drive? If so, then you have one freaky demon working against you. Something is interrupting your processor or audio stream. Check it all again. Internet? Updates? Virus crap? Priority for audio?

It should just work. One thing to check could be whether your firewire port has TI (Texas Instruments) chipset. There are known issues with other versions that don't work well with firewire audio interfaces.

Hell, it could be as simple as a bad firewire cable or connector.
 
yes ive been recording and saving this project to my backup drive.

well, in my device manager it says that my only IEEE 1394 Bus Host Controller is a Texas Instruments 1394 OHCI Compliant Host Controller.
