CRACKLING SOUNDS I Musicbee v3.0.6132 + Focusrite Scarlett 2i4

[tomboudiboudi]

Hello you music diggers  



I'm experiencing a quite annoying problem while listening tunes on Musicbee (v3.0.6132) when I open a DAW software (Cubase Elements 9) or any music production standalone plugin/vst (Amplitube, Peavey Revalver, Superior Drummer...):

My sound start to crackle at the moment I open one of those software.
I think it's basicaly a buffer size stuff (but not sure), but when I max it out in Musicbee's settings it doesn't change anything to this crackling...

I need to mention that I set Musicbee player output on Asio to load my Focusrite Scarlett USB interface.


There is my setup:


Windows 10 x64, 1607 (14393.693)


Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 (2° gen), with last drivers
Fluid Audio F5 Monitors

Musicbee 3.0.6132, Cubase Elements 9, Amplitube, Peavey Revalver, Superior Drummer


Dell XPS 15 9550:

Intel i7 6700HQ 2,6 / 3,6 GHz
16Gb ram
GeForce GTX 960M 2Gb DDR5 / Intel Iris 530
SSD Samsung 512Gb

the only suggestion i have is to try WASAPI output which is equal to ASIO for sound quality
