It’s a desktop. It seems like it could be a power issue from the symptoms, but I don’t see how that would come about. My PC is under my desk, but it has plenty of room…if it’s a cooling problem, what utilities would you suggest to check that? As far as buffering size goes - it helps a very small amount. It happens less often when I set it to 1024, but it still happens nonetheless. Besides, with the delay, it’s too difficult to record audio and when I set it lower it cuts out and interrupts it. The audio interface I’m using is the Scarlet Focusrite Solo 2nd Gen - the drivers are fully up to date.
