Hello, a continuation of the below thread from old forums [1].
As of recently, as of the last update for Maschine update, I *think* I am noticing the return of a problem that I used to have. The problem of audio crackling and poping during project playback more frequently. This project contains a couple of 3rd party NKS compatible plugins, one Arturia and one AAS and the rest are mostly NI plugins. Is there a support page on how to debug 3rd party NKS plugins in Maschine?
Below are my Maschine version setting as well as what is happening. I have circled the CPU spikes when the audio starts to crackle and distort. In img m-48-128 you can see the CPU spike at the end. I forgot to circle it. m-48-256 is the same project at 256 settings. I really dont want to have to use anything past that if possible.
- Hardware: MK3 and Focusrite Scarlette 8i6.
- OS: Windows 10 x64
My project setting is usually at 24/48k and the problem happens at both 128 and 256 buffer. Is the bottleneck the CPU or a software issue? This has been working fine for years without issues and started as of the last time I updated Maschine.
Any tips or advice on how to further debug this? This problem does not happen in my regular DAW Cubase 10 x64.
