I am having serious problems with Cool Edit Pro 2.0.
Each time that I use it, it cuts out during playback and makes terrible popping noises…similar to what you would hear through your speakers if you unplugged a stereo without first turning the power button off. The noise is so bad that I wouldn’t even think of trying to record anything.
I have spoken to Cool Edit Support once and have also acted on several recommendations provided to me via e-mail. Some of these had to do with tweaking Windows XP Home, and others had to do with tweaking settings in Cool Edit Pro itself.
For example, I have tried what seems like dozens of different buffer settings in an attempt to resolve this issue. I also downloaded the latest drivers for my Sound Blaster Audigy Platinum card. I also note that no other audio programs trigger this same problem. It appears to happen only when I use CEP 2.0.
To eliminate the possibility of hardware issues, I brought my computer to the computer store that built it and they had their technicians test it and certify that the hardware is fine. This excersize cost me $90.00. They also checked the bios. They maintain that any issues related to Cool Edit are not hardware related and are particular to the Cool Edit software itself.
I went as far as formatting my entire hard drive and then reinstalling a brand new copy of Windows XP Home Edition, thinking that it may have been the operating system that was causing corruption.
Despite all this expense and effort, I am still stuck with virtually an inoperable Cool Edit Pro 2.0. I am at my wits end as to how to resolve this. All my music projects are in this format.
I'm desperate..any ideas are welcome......
Thank-you
