Tried with device plugged into power supply and with only USB buss power Tried it in a USB 2 only hub in case USB 3 ports are incompatible (they are not supposed to be)
Moved the device to every USB port on the computer (all ports are USB 3)
#TASCAM USB AUDIO INTERFACE DRIVERS#
Installed, uninstalled, re-installed the Tascam ASIO drivers (many, many times now)Ĭhanged out USB cables (many different cables, USB A and C) Whenever toggling the Record Enable button on audio tracks Whenever adding an audio track template with a VST effect on in its bin
Whenever adding a VST instrument (if I add 16 instances of the instrument with the "Track per output" setting, it pops 16 times in slow succession) Whenever toggling the state of the audio engine in the Control Bar In Cakewalk specifically, the pops happen when:Īccessing the Preferences page and making a change to the audio settings I have no issues (that I've noticed yet) during record or playback, but the sometimes very startling POPs are very unnerving and don't leave me feeling very secure about its ongoing operation. My issue is loud pops/crackle whenever the audio engine is being accessed. Please assume that my system is a professional audio set-up (built by PCAudio Labs) that I have been using for years with multiple other devices without issue.
This audio interface is a new upgraded model of a previous interface and hot off Tascam's production line with a new driver and only one version of that driver. I have nothing against Tascam and have never had issue with Tascam products in the past. I have a brand new (now my second) Tascam US-4X4HR which I so very much wanted to love.
