Re: cracling noise on recording and playback
Everything is running at 44.1KHz, and the sound is fine except for the crackle. It was fine with FiWi four weeks ago, and if my old laptop that has FiWi will actually come alive when i charge it, I'll give it a check tonight and also try the usb with this computer as well. The noise problem is exactly the same using a Core i3 equipped Laptop and an Atom equipped Netbook, so it doesn't seem to be processor related, and it would be strange that to so different computers had the same issue with driver.
Ok, next step would be to change the sample rate of the console and see how the noise is affected.
Double check that the samplerate at the computer is in sync. Don't trust xcontrol samplerate status. I've encountered a couple of times where it didn't show the correct rate.
Is there any difference between fiwi and usb? They are using different drivers so this could indicate if it's a driver problem.

I was suspecting a buffer problem and tried different settings, none seemed to helpI have encountered a few times in the past that if interface buffers were set too low OR TOO HIGH it could cause audible
distortion and I had to find the sweet spot.
