• The sound breaks up or there is noise.
The load on the computer causes sound to
break up and noise to occur.
Methods to reduce the load on the computer
are introduced below.
1) If a wireless LAN, antivirus software and
other software that run in the background
are operating, they regularly put burdens
on the computer, which can cause sound
to break up and noise.
Stop wireless LAN transmission,
antivirus software and other software
running in the background when using
this unit.
2) Set the buffer size in the DAW software
that you are using to a larger value.
