Distorted crackling sound coming from maschine plus stereo output

Hi guys so today was my first attempt and trying some production stand-alone

i loaded 3 loops in different groups and few one shots in another group and had 2 multi sampled instruments I made myself on another group plus a instance of lo ark doing a sub bass. All this taxed the cpu around 40% but a times the overall sound of the unit would become distorted. I tried soloing the groups to see if one sound would be the source of it and I found most of the times the distortion coming from the group that have the monarchs instance plus the multi sampled instruments I made myself with auto sample.


since the distortion it’s not happening at all times but intermitently I wonder what could be causing this if it’s a SD card reading problem or what …


please help

    I've been using it standalone and lately haven't been gotten any problems.

    Is your M+ software and firmware up to date? Versions?

    Audio-Plug loops are known to cause audio issues when doing certain things like switching scenes and whatnot, it doesn't take many for it to start happening. See if removing them temporarily fixes anything.

    I've been having this same kind of problem lately (but not related to loops). Stuttering, dropouts and brief CPU spikes that are making it impossible to get clean audio reliably. And it happens in EVERY Maschine configuration: Maschine MK3, M+ in controller mode, and Mikro MK3. I even bought an Audiobox Go interface with good ASIO drivers to see if that would fix the problem and that didn't either, exactly the same issue. It must be related to the Maschine 2 software. (FYI I'm on Win 11 with all updated software and drivers.)

    Well, I do not have any problem with Maschine SW. Using it on five different Win computers.

    IMHO, most problems are due to problems with computer (setup or weak CPU/RAM/HDD/SSD) or driver of audio interface...
