When Recording Pop and the Distortioin

I have 6.5

Using Line6 PodFarm from a TonePort

I will be recording when all of the sudden there is a pop.

Then when when I go to listen back, at that point, the sound goes from being fine, to being crackly distorted.

It used to work fine, but I think an update may have broken things.

Thoughts?

Are you getting spikes on your ASIO meter? Does the problem go away with a higher buffer/greater latency?

Are you running a more complicated project than before with more plugins? Different project settings?

Some other system specs might be helpful, also. Operating System, 32/64, CPU, RAM, etc. You can add it in your sig through your MySteinberg account.

Which update to what do you suspect might have changed something?

I did fiddle with latency, but didn’t seem to matter. Will try again.

No, pretty simple project.

MacBookPro from around 2011. Lots of ram.

Not sure. Maybe OSX system update, or cubase 6.5.4 update, or line6 podfarm…

Stinks when you get in a state like this, impossible sometimes to track down.

Had been working great for many years…
