Describe your issue:
Using a Mac running Big Sur and the Quad Cortex as my audio interface out to monitors, occasionally I will hear audio glitches. It seems reproducible.
I also am receiving audio glitches which prevents me from utilizing the QC as an audio interface via USB to my Pro Tools DAW in Windows 10. Any insight on this would be appreciated, thanks!
This is also happening to me with a 32% CPU patch active (not even playing, just using my computer).
I couldn’t reproduce it though, glad you found a way!
Yo, i also get occasional audio glitches when using it as audio interface. It’s like the audio goes robotic for a second or two and back to normal.
In my case it seems more severe than yours.
My setup: when not playing, I have created an empty patch where there is no input other than windows audio (thru usb obv) and output is speakers on channels 1 and 2. This minimises the QC CPU consumption at 3%.
So even in this condition of low CPU usage and simple audio streaming from YouTube or Spotify, the QC gives me audio glitches.
Additionally, from time to time,out of the blue, audio goes dead and I have to reboot the QC to hear something again.
When playing guitar I’m totally satisfied with QC.
When not playing, I regret getting rid of my good old UR22 - which never gave me a crack or glitch.
update 1.0.1 does not fix this issue on Windows 10. Audio glitches occur through pc sounds when using QC as audio interface, at every possible buffer size, and for some reason my driver is locked to 48khz and I can’t confirm if changing to 44.1 khz resolves the issue.
I experienced a fun one: was playing normally and all of a sudden it glitched and started delaying the sound by about 2/3 of a second. Disconnected the USB and it would go back to normal for a while. I recorded it for proof.
Intermittent glitches here too where I don’t experience issues with my Clarett. Seems to affect only the output not the recorded signal when recording wet/dry outputs from the QC. Interesting enough, when using plugins through the QC and recording into a DAW (using QC for pre/post FX) it does capture those glitches in the recorded signal when having audio route from plugins back to the QC. Same listening to music too, I just expect to hear random glitches when listening to music until a driver update patches this (not sure what else would remedy).
Also getting glitches roughly every 3m. Super annoying since you can’t record any song in one take… I’m on OSX 10.15 buffer size is 64 samples, but setting it higher makes the latency noticeable. But I think it extends the time between glitches.
