Why does this horrible noise keep coming back?

[vinnieuk]

I get set up - acoustic guitar and vocals then distortion. What is happening?

I use M Audio fastrack and win 7.

I do not get this trouble using sound forge 10 but then I can't record 2 tracks together with that.

 

[Steenamaroo]

We don't know.
What levels are coming in on your Protools meters?

If i doubt, post an mp3.

 

[vinnieuk]

Hi
i am not overloading it. the noise is at very low volume

 

[vinnieuk]

Just noticed it sounds OK.

Just noticed it sounds OK.

Problem's gone?

 

[vinnieuk]

No. The sound is only when I am listening using protools. When I export the sound and play it it is OK

Clicks and pops?

Increase HW buffer size in Setup>Playback engine.

No. it sounds like a kazoo -un intelligible.

 

[Steenamaroo]

Hmm. Any effects on or anything like that?

If you can hear it, you should be able to do a real time bounce of it.

If you don't know how, record something.
Set the track output to bus 1+2
Create a new stereo track.
Set that track's input to bus 1+2
Record arm that track.
RTZ and hit record+play on transport.
Once done, solo your new track and bounce to mp3.

That should dump whatever issue you're hearing to mp3.

 

[vinnieuk]

No effects.
sounds a bit complicated. I can't just get it do the sound. So frustrating. I have asked on the protools forum. Thanks anyway.

Do yo happen to know if I can record acoustic and vocals at the same time on sound forge 10? I would much prefer to use SF

It's four extra clicks, to be fair.

Sorry. I don't know it.

Hi again. Yes I have tried that and the wave file is clear. Seems that it is only when listening with protools

 

[Steenamaroo]

Damn, really?
That's strange.

You're certain your drivers and software version are up to date/Win7 compatible?

 

[vinnieuk]

As I only hear the distortion in my earphones I have recorded it on my phone. Does anyone know what it is?View attachment Prodistort.mp3View attachment Prodistort.mp3

 

[Steenamaroo]

Only on headphone output, or do you get the same thing via main outputs?
