I’ve just bought Scarlett 6i6 Sound Card by Focusrite, after updating Windows 7 x64 - drivers finally started to work!
But when I set input in Renoise to ASIO (or any other), hit PLAY and start moving mouse over the screen - I can clearly hear annoying CLICKS / PLOPS etc (like distortion over graphics card).
I have really good setup but I can`t manage Renoise to work without clicks even after 10 days of test…
Please take a look at this image (attached) or from my DropBox:
Have you tried other DAWs to see if it still happens? Do you use balanced lines? USB cables with two ferrit cores? Plugged the speakers into another power sockets in your room? That graphics card noise goes away by pure luck sometimes.
It’s USB!!! No wonder… ok, ok, maybe try another port and watch if it has an own hub. Try usb3 port instead. Change USB settings in bios, like intel fancy mode.
Thank you, guys, for helping me. Nope, it’s not laptop (didt try on it yet) but in next 2 days a friend of mine will come to try to fix me this problem. You wont believe - any drivers would not work without updating Windows7 (he tried everything).
I THINK what it might be a problem, but - there is, for example - no “RECORD WHAT YOU HEAR” (for example - you want to “steal” someone’s water effect - hit play on Youtube, hit record on WaveLab and record what your PC is playing. Guys from Scarlett wrote me in support that - in order to do such effect - I will have to put OUTPUT to INPUT and this way I will be able to “record what I hear”. Maybe this cable is causing interference.
Anyway - until I try to solve this, here is one image of my home setup:
Glad I found this. I’m using ASUS Z790-V Prime WiFi DDR5 and Scarlett 6i6, and I have this issue with DAWS and Amazon Music, but not with browser videos or streaming, and not any other programs. Updating the BIOS doesn’t seem to have solved it unfortunately. But I can take it up with ASUS.
Go to Scrlett 6i6 site, get latest drivers and set buffers to 200 from settings… Or read FAQ on their site about 6i6 issues. Everything is covered, I used to have cracks but after whatever update, bzzz sounds are gone.
