Clicks-n-pops...

OK...Just upgraded from v1.0b to v3. Everything appeared *wonderful* in tests until I began a recording session [of course]. Here's what's happening:

1) When recording and monitoring through CueMix Console on my MOTU 1224, I hear random clicks and pops in my playback output from the 8 channel bank. I do NOT, however, hear such clicks when I monitor through MAIN OUT???!!! I have adjusted MOTU and Vegas buffers ad nauseum...

2) If I record a track or tracks, tell Vegas to delete the tracks, and then try and record again without FIRST disarming and re-arming the tracks, Vegas locks up.

3) Vegas appears to be placing newly recorded tracks 1-2 frames *early* on the EDL in comparison to the reference playback tracks. I *am* still using the "Vegas.exe=392" patch in the MOTU432.cfg file...

Here's the system:

PIII733
256 MEG RAM
ATA 66/100 7200 Drives
44BX Chipset
W98 SE
MOTU PCI324/1224 Interface

Recording 44.1kHz at 24bit, clock source is PCI324 INTERNAL.

Any similar experiences? Any ideas?

Thanks

Regarding (1): Check to make sure all your audio FXs have correct licensing. If not, you will see a "demo" watermark on them. "Demo" FXs insert random pops and clicks. It may be something else (I've no experience with your configuration), but this is just something to check until someone else responds with a better idea.

Are you by chance running Windows XP? I am experience a similar problem with captured AV from an analog source. I do not have a 1394 so I don't know if the problem exhists with DV captures.
