Hi. I have a G4 1.25 (old model) w/ 1GB RAM with a RME Hammerfall 9652, Logic 5,5 OS 9 and a dedicated sample hard drive. When I play samples from the EXS, I get crackles and pops. When I bounce an EXS track, I see digital errors on the waveform; the waveform drops off in a square at each pop and click. Right now I can't use my EXS!!! I hope someone can help because I'm paralyzed. Thank you, Min

Check the individual sample files in the audio editor. Click the small "E" in the Zone box. If you find the errors and "little squares", edit them out as best you can and/or change the start point. > When I play samples from the EXS, I get crackles and pops.

Does it happen with all your EXS Instruments or just that one? For now you could bounce in OSX in import the audio in 9....?? > I don't get popping in OSX!

are you using more than one audio card?- I used to use an AudioWerk for samples and a MOTU 828 for audio but even when correctly configured with spdf there was popping and cracking- maybe that helps-David

Hi Patrick, thanks for the reply. I have checked the samples out. They're AOK. I've also tried Moving the start and end points around, and made sure that the waves end on zero crossing. No luck. I have the feeling that this is a Logic internal synchronization issue. I get the popping Regardless of my hammerfall latency, even when the card is clocking off of itself. One more thing, I don't get popping in OSX! Of course, I can't work in OSX though because I need VST plugs. So I think This is software related. Any other ideas? Thanks, Min

This happens on about half of my instruments, most of which are from the EXSgroup files. It's actually definetly not the samples because I get popping Audibly and on the recorded waveform even if I engage a LPF and cut off all the highs.

Only one audio card. It's an RME Hammerfall 9652. I hope it's just a setting I'm overlooking.
