In that folder, open the audacity.cfg settings file. To reset preferences, quit Audacity, open Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder and type: ~/Library/Application Support/audacity/ Resetting Audacity Preferences requires more than reinstalling Audacity. Have you tried reduced Audio to buffer in Audacity’s Recording Preferences? Take it as low as it will go that allows you to record. 2.1.0-alpha is believed stable and should be close to ready for the upcoming 2.1.0 release. That might help if you are recording into tracks that had previous content. If you have not already done so you could try the latest 2.1.0-alpha build from the top of. Mac Mini Late 2012 Firewire > Mote Audio Express.įor the sake of clarity please look at the pink panel at the top of the page and give us the exact Audacity version number - all three numbers. The issue is isolated to Audacity, other software records without glitch. We’re running the latest version of Audcacity. We have updated the divers and firmware for the Motu Audio Express. It usually starts after long periods of recording, mostly after 15 minutes. We also have a issue that sounds very much like yours only for us the static that you hear in the recording is actually recorded to the file, and will be present when played back through other software. Also we could ask a developer with an external device on Mac to see if they can reproduce the problem, but as far as I know no developers have your device. If that doesn’t help, you may perhaps want to ask on the Apple forums or Edirol support to open up other lines of enquiry. Otherwise (assuming you are not recording overdubs), try setting the Output for Edirol in Audio MIDI Setup to 16-bit, but leave the input at 24-bit. If you have Audacity’s Quality Preferences set to 24-bit, try 32-bit float instead. It could equally be Edirol or Mavericks bugs that Audacity is exposing, or a Mac-only Audacity bug. It would suggest (perhaps) that using Audacity, the quantity of data processed affects playback. Where did you convert the recording to 16-bit PCM - in Audacity’s Track Dropdown Menu? If so, yes that’s odd that it would crackle as a 24-bit track sent to Edirol set to 24-bit output, but not if you send a 16-bit track. I double checked the audio/midi configuration and that was set for 24bit. Do you have any suggestions on what settings to look at/change on the basis of this? (again playback in 24bit works in logic, and there is no problem with recording in 24bit in audacity or logic). This is however not a permanent solution for me, since I need recordings in 24 bit. I converted the recording to 16bit PCM and that solved it. I did however find a way to make the sound stop. ![]() I also tried it without wifi but that not change anything either. I played around with the buffer for a bit, higher, lower, tried to match the settings logic has, but none of this made any difference. Have you tried changing Audio to buffer in Audacity’s Recording Preferences? And/or looking at any accessible buffer settings in Edirol? Perversely, reducing Audio to buffer below default 100 ms in Audacity can often help. I’ve tried audacity on 44,1kHz, 48kHz and 96kHz (always changing the setting on my audio interface too and checking that is correct in audio/midi configuration)Īudacity 2.0.6 (i had 2.0.5 before which also had the same problem) playback of anything (movies/music/whatever) through my audio interface works fine.playback in audacity to the build in logic (or any other program) output of my macbook works fine. ![]() playback in logic of what I’ve recorded in audacity works fine.recording and playback in logic works fine.The problem is in the combination with audacity and my audio interface, since it doesn’t occur in any other case: It sounds to me like a clocking problem, but I can’t seem to figure where the problem seems to be. So I don’t have to explain what it sounds like, I’ve captured a short click of a vinyl rip (this recording was in 24bit 96kHz) on my iphone. I’ve recently started using audacity again for when I quickly want to capture something, but I can’t listen to what I’ve recorded in audacity due to a clicking/stuttering sound.
