Audio glitch problem

Post by fidox »

Hi !

I have time to time problems while playing project or recording in Cubase 8 Artist with audio glitch.
Even if i have project loaded just from 20-30% or less.
It happens random.
I have checked few things, but can't figured out.
Latencymon shows low values and no problems there.
IRQ's are fine.
All i can think is :
-integrated graphic (intel i7)
-page file ? i have 16gb fast ram
-m.2 ssd on motherboard with windows 10 64bit installed

any suggestions maybe, what i can also try ?

i have included one sample.mp3 where you can hear that glitch, no matter while recording or playing, it happens random.

Best,
Matej

I vote for the video card. Also maybe try setting Scope and Cubase processes to Above Normal priority ?

thanks, this one is nice tip.
i'm producing right now, so i will test this one.

i also found in bios HPET was disabled, so i enabled it and also checked in windows. (if something has to do with system timer).

I still have one pci-e video card for backup plan, will test other things first.

Seems, that i have found the culprit.
Today, after trying different drivers and optimizations, i have finally check last option, disabled integrated graphic and installed pci-e graphic card back.
Ofcourse, there's still need to be tested more, but after few hours of producing today, it was fine.

FWIW: I have installed this little goodie on a spare PCI-e slot to keep the power to the PCI-e video card under control. I've had it installed for a long time now and it seems to do what it says. Adds that little bit of power to the graphics card for better stability. Doesn't affect the Scope PCI cards and keeps the Scope graphics in line.

The price is stupid cheap and the install is a breeze.

I wanted my computer as cool as possible, that's why i enable onboard graphic at first place and remove pci-e graphic card.
Pci slot is very close to pci-e slot, so graphic card is very close now, near luna II card.
But, i have added additional fan (graphic card is fanless-silent), running at low speed and it's fine.
