Random clicks and pops 7.4
After downloading 7.4 i started getting the occasional white noise business that i had read so much about. i would just be playing a track and then, white noise. i looked around and saw that i needed to update my firmware. did that. now im getting random clicks and pops during playback. kinda like vinyl pops... but ,like, digital pops. so basically not good.
this happening to anyone else? thanks. im running 10.4.9 by the way.

Re: Random clicks and pops 7.4
i think im finding that i probably didnt need to even fool with the firmware. perhaps i should never mess with things when i have no idea what they are going to do. so now im curious as to how i get things back to where they were.
they clicks and pops are happening when im in Reason, iTunes... everything now. anybody?

Re: Random clicks and pops 7.4
i never had 7.3 but i uninstalled PT and reinstalled 7.0, and that didnt do it. so i just reinstalled 7.4 again... still clicking away.

Re: Random clicks and pops 7.4
yes this same thing happend to me too when i uninstalled but i think the problem lies deeper than just a simple uninstall
i 0 filled the hd reformatted the drive then reinstalled my os and then reinstalled 7.3 ( i changed the fireware back before 0 fill) everything seems to work just fine now or at least till further notice if this doesn't work i'm considering just sending back to digidesign unless you have any other ideas? |

how did you downgrade the firmware? i tried to reinstall my 7.0 and there was no firmware installer on that disc... not to mention PT would not even open until i gave up and reinstalled 7.4.

Re: Random clicks and pops 7.4
Make sure "RTAS Error Suppression" is unchecked in Setup>Playback Engine>RTAS Engine dialog.

Re: Random clicks and pops 7.4
0 filling the hard drive is basically writing zeros to each sector of the drive
as far as i know when you buy a new hd it comes zero filled the os part is pretty strait forward as far as the firmware downgrade i simply unistalled everything to do with pt 7.4 installed 7.3 and when i booted 7.3 it asked me if i wanted to rewrite the firmware to the 7.3 version this may be a mac and pc difference but i doubt it i'm going to give my system a full recording test today and i will let you know if there are any problems still my playback problem is definetly gone hope at least some of this helps |
