Hey guys!
Wasn't sure where the best place was to post this was so I figured I'd do it here.
I have a Tascam US-1800 and have for about 4-5 years now. Love the unit. However, recently I've had some problems with it.
I use the Tascam as my main sound device on my PC, so not only do I record with it, but I watch youtube videos, listen to music, and play games all through it (is this normal? Will me constantly using it have a detrimental affect on the life of the unit)?
Either way, I've noticed that recently the Tascam starts to stutter, distory, pop, click, and sometimes drop sound alltogether, often times desyncing videos or dropping all sound from games (sometimes crashing them). I have to turn the unit off and then back on again for me to resolve the issue, but it is becoming more and more frequent. I almost wonder if it has to do with my Windows 10 upgrade I did about 3 months back.
EIther way, here are some system specs too.
OS: Windows 10 64 Bit
Ram: 24 GB DDR3
CPU: i7 4970k
Any other info you might need, just let me know! I did upgrade to the most recent Tascam driver (2.5.4, which came out in August of 2014) but that has not resolved the issue.
Thanks again for any help!
Best,
CB
