Help me please, i'm recording drums with my audiobox vsl1818, and at first i didn't have any problems with the interface because i recorded directly into logic pro X, but when i run the recording through the audiobox software instead of directly into logic pro, it randomly makes pops/clicks in the recordings.
I don't know what to do because my drums sound like 2 times better when i run it through the presonus software, but when i record it just goes popping everything I repeat: I don't hear the noises when i'm monitoring the sound, it's just when i run it through the preosnus software to logic pro |
It could be any number of things. Have you optimized your pc for audio production? Have you disabled wi-fi? Are you plugged into a USB2 or USB3 port? That being said we cannot help you without a bit more info......if you will post your system specs (see my sig), we will be better able to trouble shoot your problems. Without knowing what type of pc you're running, what DAW etc....we can't recommend a "simple fix"
If you have not already done so please register your audiobox and open a tech support ticket. They'll get you sorted.

^logic pro = mac.
i have experienced more problems with clicks/pops etc on the mac than on pc. check your audio/midi setup - applications - utilities - audio/midi. ontop of the regular 1818 driver i found some other driver that i had to delete. not sure where it came from and why.

Check the Buffer in your DAW.
>> http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1314 If you use not correct buffer size, you can have pops, clicking. I've solved the problem when i changed this |
Driver and firmware are the first place to look. Make sure those are the latest. There has been a recent update that addressed issues similar to what all of you are reporting.
After that, check the buffer settings in your computer. If those are too low then your computer may not be able to process the audio. These are in the settings tab of VSL. You cannot change them on a Mac while they are in use so you'll have to close and open your DAW and test in between. |
I am having it since the newer 1818 firmware update. I had to recently upgrade to OSX 10.9.5 and it forced me to get 1818 updated and have had nothing but rice crispies in my sound. It is pissing me off now and I see nothing on the horizon for the fix. This isn't a buffer issue either so I am about to dump this hunk of poop

If you haven't done so already, I suggest you open a support ticket.

I have had the same problem already twice.
I hat PT11.0.3 installed and the Audiobox 1818/44 + Driver 1.3 on OS 10.8.5 It had all cracks and pops in it randomly on the tracks / through the VSL Software. I changed the driver back to 1.2 and the problems were gone. After a while i installed a SSD System drive in my Macbook pro and had to reinstall all the software. I even bought OS 10.8.5 for 20 Bugs, got the 1.2 driver from presonus and tried to get my hands on the PT 11.0.3 installer. But all they had was the 11.0.2 update. What can i say. There was nothing i could do to prevent the clicks and pops. I am now Running PT 11.3 and Presonus 1.3 on OS 10.8.5 and i have clicks and pops even on single track recordings on all the buffer sizes and also through the vsl software. I´m running out of options here. My whole system is based on Presonus. |
Okay, some little news from my side, which fixed the problem once again.
Try out different VSL/Interface/DAW/OS patch versions. Since my last post, i went back to the earliest Mountain Lion compatible VSL Software (1.2 i think), and upgraded PT to 11.3.1. I don´t understand, which exact magic took place, but i can now again monitor and record in any way and on any buffer size, without cracks and pops. This also means, that i will never, ever, ever, ever, patch anything on this Mac again. greetings; hope this helps some of the users here. Fab |
Well, I used to say PreSonus doesn't actively engage in the user forums, but things seem to be changing. Maybe you'll get lucky.

We are aware of this issue and how it affects some systems and are working to solve it. We hope to have a more advanced driver out that will allow for customization of the buffer modes to handle these types of situations. We actually have something in testing now and after it is fully vetted, it will be in the next release.
