Q: Any and all audio that is played back crackles in Logic Pro X
I have an iMac (27 inch, Late 2013) with 3.2 GHz Intel Core i5, 8GB of RAM, and 1 TB of storage.
I am running OS X Yosemite (version 10.10.2) and Logic Pro X (version 10.1.0). I have tried updating them both and from what it looks like they are the latest versions.
The problem is that any type of audio coming from Logic Pro X now crackles. Originally it only used to do this through my speakers and that was just because I thought my song was too loud.
It is now doing it through my headsets as well even if I play just one note of a software instrument with very low volume
The only thing I have messed with is the I/O buffer size because I heard that could be the problem. While increasing it to 1024 does lessen the crackle it is still highly noticeable.
Please help. I've been streaming my production of music but now I can't because it will hurt everyones ears as well as my own.
Logic Pro X, OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)
