Autotune Clicks and Pops solutions?

[SWBoatman25]

Hello, I have Autotune 8.1

I have recorded a vocal track, then I insert the Autotune plug in to clean up anything out of whack.

After tracking the pitch, I listen to it in playback and there is always a crack or a pop somewhere in the vocals.

I only have a EQ on the track and bussing it to a de-esser. Not much goin on in terms of plug in use on the track (1-autotune. 2- de-esser. 3- EQ)
I have not shifted or moved the clips around, I have only added fades.

Has anyone had this problem and can solve it?

I have:
Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11.1
Pro Tools 11.1
Interface: Focusrite Scarlet 2i2 (2 yrs old)

Playback engine is at: 1024 samples
CPU usage fluctuates at around 30%


Thank you

I'm not sure that PT11.1 works on El Capitan

I know PT11.3.2 just made qualification for Yosemite and will never be updated to work in ElCap. It might work but the op would have to update to PT11.3.2 and try but he'd be on his own for support.

Awww wth really?

When they aren't compatible, what happens? Because, Pro Tools works fine most of the time except for a few hiccups here and there.

Those 'few hiccups' you're seeing are the result of the incompatibility between PT11 and ElCrapitan. Either backdate to Yosemite or go to PT12. Sorry but them's the breaks.

I highly doubt those hiccups are caused because of incompatibility issues. I'm running PT 10.3.8 on Windows 7 pc with Auto tune 8 and i have the same issues. It's so annoying i feel your pain, even after setting my apollo interface and autotune at really high buffer sizes i still get the damn pops and clicks! I'm thinking of contacting Antares about this issue to see what they suggest.
