Hi all,

After researching extensively I see there are others who are having the same problem with clicks and pops in audio when using the iTwo.

I just got it last night and hooked it up, did a fresh install of the latest drivers 2.21.0.5653 and firmware 1.25 with VSL 1.3.5653. Regardless of using it in Ableton 8 or Ableton 9, I get the same results with audio dropouts and insane CPU usage which never happened before when using ASIO4ALL drivers.

I have followed multiple instructions from all sources I could find, tried USB 3.0 and 2.0 ports and made no difference. Increased and decreased the buffer size (Cmon, even at 512 I shouldn't be getting ANY pops or dropouts!) and still will get random drops even when using ONE vst like Omnisphere or Dune 2.

I'm on a i7-3770 3.4GHz with 24GB of 1866 RAM. There's no reason at all I should be having any problems, especially since with only my stock soundcard and ASIO4ALL drivers I could run MANY instances of VST's with absolutely no clicks or jitter and maybe 12% CPU usage on Ableton. With the iTwo it seems that I hit into 70% CPU usage which makes no sense at all. Even worse when I add plugins to the mix....

I'd like to try and figure it out before I send it back and go with another interface so I will try anything I can to make this work. Your help and suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Thank you,
