Anyone good fixing Pops and Clicks - (I'm not a beginner user)
I have a Native card setup with two HD IOs. I recently switched back from a hybrid system of a Waves DLS with the HD IOs back to a true Native card setup with the pci avid hd native card and the two HD IOs. I use Studio one mostly but also use Cubase. They both have the same pops and clicks issue so it's not a specific DAW problem.
I get pops and clicks during recording and even when not playing (but record monitoring). Im currently testing with one mic to things simple. I'm on a 64 buffer and my pc is screaming fast (current year i7 and 64gb ram). My test projects are empty. No VSTs or plugins. Pops and clicks are intermittent and happen anywhere between 5 seconds apart and two minutes apart. Very frustrating. I've uninstalled and reinstalled both DAWS to no avail. Anyone experience this and have any ideas? Additional Info - I tried to open Digitest and an error message came up. I can still record with the pops and clicks as mentioned, but Digitest currently does not open. It used to. The error code reads "cannot get digidaidevice for dsiDeviceindex = 0" Last edited by JBQIII; 01-19-2024 at 11:17 AM. Reason: Added info |

Sounds ike a clocking problem. How have you wired them and is there by any chance any sampling rate mismatch anywhere?

More info - i tried to check things via digitest and I got the error message I added above. Usually digitest opens so I wonder if a recent update broke the card or system? The card's two leds still light up and the card still works somewhat, minus the pops and clicks. The error code doesn't makes sense to me. Maybe you understand it? Error Code- "cannot get digidaidevice for dsiDeviceindex = 0" |

Have you tried another digilink cable between card and single interface? That would be your minimalistic configuration, assuming card and one of the interfaces is good. Digilink carries clock you know...

Yeah, I've tried a different shorter cable (3') as well as disconnecting the other interface and I've tried both ports on the hd native card. Digitest still gives me the same error code. I've never seen this one before.. |

Tough nut to break. Can you also try different card slot? Hardware-wise that is kind of last thing to try that comes to mind.

Unfortunately that did not make a difference either. Is there a chance the new HD Driver could be the issue? I'm unsure how that driver works...if it's just for Pro Tools software, or if it's for other DAWs as well? Maybe a roll back would help?

Driver may be an issue. Hardware problems are ruled out, assuming they are in working cindition.

what's interesting is that Pro Tools as the DAW has no problems. I tested out a trial this afternoon to check, and Pro Tools Ultimate works perfectly. No pops and clicks at all. But Cubase and Studio One both have the same pops and clicks. Does that help at all with any more ideas on what I could look into? |

Again, likely driver issue as 3rd parties do not check Avid stuff. Keep rolling back to a version that works for you.
PT does not use HD driver, the card driver is natively built into PT instead. You only need HD driver with 3rd party DAWs.
