Ok,

I dumped 8 tracks of Analogue to 8 tracks digital all at once.

Duped 2 tracks for a panning effect.

Track One, Lead Guitar. On analogue pretty clean, on digital, clicks, clicks, clicks.

If I mute the track, very clean sound.

If I solo the track, clicks.

I have the tracked panned, yet the clicks show up in stereo and in no particular order or spot.

I re-recorded it many times adjusting buffers and Sound card latency.

I tried different busses, still clicks.

Any suggestions.

Just a guess, but when you've re-recorded the track, have you tried renaming it, or are you just saving over the same file. The reason I ask is b/c it sounds like a problem I've run into with "truncated" files. I don't even know what the word means, but it has something to do with the way CEP stores track info. randomly on a hard drive. If the reference file gets corrupted, then the file does some weird stuff...like it'll play fine for abit, then maybe you get a backwards cymbal or something in the middle of a vocal track.

Doesn't sound like what you're dealing with, but have you tried a different name for the file? Also, it's only one track that did this?
 
and while I'm thinking about it. ... just to troubleshoot, mix down all the files into one mix and tell us if the clicks end up in the final mix. Sounds dumb, I know...but just try it.
 
Chris,

I'm not sure about the naming if files, I do not think it saved as the same name.

As far as mix down is concerned, I will be mix to an out board 2 track.

Okay, it's still just the one track, right? Don't hate me for asking, but did you possibly clip it on the way in?
 
no, I tried different volumes and it does not sound anything like clipping.

BUT, I'll give it another try at a very low volume.

It is fucked up. Mainly because how quite the mix is sounding other then that lead guitar track.

Make sure you've got all your windows volume crap in order. The line in volume should be selected (instead of mic in) and it oughtta' be at least 3/4ths of the way up. Check your playback volumes, too.

If the tracks that you imported (except for the guit track) are really skinny and whimpy looking, then your input levels (in Windows) may be set too low.
