system: win 7 64bit, Q6600, 4gb ram etc etc....


So I am trying to record some growls and what happens is this shit. It happens with everything I record... any ideas? what could this be? only happens on my PC when using cubase. It works on my mac.

Interface is a brand new m-audio profire 2626.

That is the sound of your interface loosing sync with the machine.

Assuming everything else is right, this happens when your machine is under heavy load or the firewire bus maxes out.

On Windows, there are a few things to keep in mind. You have to make sure that the Firewire ports are running at full speed. Also the driver must at the right version depending on if it is XP,Vista, or 7.

The chipset of your firewire card must also be a Texas Instruments chip for most cases. Every manufacturer supports the TI chip, some also support VIA or NEC, some don't. You also don't want to use combo cards or the onboard motherboard ones in most cases.

If you do some searching on the web you will find out more. Also on Avid/M-audio's site, they will have info on what cards and such to use.
