crap sound card, Ithink

DrCodeine	Date: September 1, 2005 @ 5:26 AM Okay. I have this track going in Fl 5.0.2. Have updated my sound card and yet still half way through when the track really kicks in the sound starts ticking all over the shop, more than previously. Please help, the Codeine only goes so far.
psypig	Date: September 1, 2005 @ 5:26 AM It's probably because it's a crack.
mattbanx	Date: September 1, 2005 @ 5:30 AM I had the same thing you are describing with a sound card that came with my old computer, so I replaced it. Though I can not really give adequate advice on it since I don't have fruity loops.
iOrbit	Date: September 1, 2005 @ 5:43 AM go to audio settings under options an click the 'use hardware buffer' checkbox. You can also try increasing the buffer length if it's still hopping and clicking. Psypig: I don't think the problem has anything to do with the software being cracked or not.

I did have it once but had to rebuild my box. So I lost the patch and the URL from where i got it. Every crk that I have tried has just failed. Even ones made by TRsh" Cracks suck.
psypig	Date: September 1, 2005 @ 6:23 AM Ah fuck it i'm just being an arsehole for the sake of it now. Even though cracks can be buggy it does sound like it could be a buffer issue. Try iOrbit's suggestion ^^^^
shadowself	Date: September 1, 2005 @ 11:15 AM Take the soundcard out of the computer. If you see anything sticking up off of the circuitboard (IC's, capacitors, etc.), this is bad and will cause pops and latency. Gently pull these off with a pair of needlenose pliers and reseat the card in the slot.
GeneHilbert	Date: September 1, 2005 @ 12:08 PM Good suggestion shadow - it will certainly play a lot quieter then........
alr76er	Date: September 2, 2005 @ 11:59 AM under the options menu FL), go to audio settings. de-highlight polling option. \might work???
mattbanx	Date: September 2, 2005 @ 12:05 PM Yep, the sound card. But I do not claim to know as much as anyone else.
monkvolcano	Date: September 2, 2005 @ 4:49 PM are you using the ASIO settings? most sound cards don't improve performance unless they are set to the ASIO.. what are the specs on your computer.. there are other reasons things might be breaking up than just the sound card.. could be a shortage of RAM or cpu..
CJWeaver	Date: September 4, 2005 @ 5:55 PM audio settings) to the highest. If you need to play the keyboard, then just set it lower. A very large part of it is the speed and cache of your processor, if its crappy, you will be slowed down, so even if you have a kickass soundcard, it will sound like ass with a slow processor. Try freezing your vsts to.(exporting them as wavs, then importing the wavs again)
mattbanx	Date: September 4, 2005 @ 6:13 PM I always set the volume control lower with my keyboard than my computer volume. I don't know if that is what you meant, CJWeaver. That darn wave volume can be hard to handle too. These observations are great.
mattbanx	Date: September 4, 2005 @ 6:19 PM I don't have much knowledge in this, and I know it sounds amateur. But if all else fails, you could record with a low volume on your computer and upload it as a media file. I use Windows Media Player. The media players do tend to boot up the volume more than on wave. But you probably just have a crap sound card that needs to be replaced.
DigitalEntropy	Date: September 9, 2005 @ 12:03 PM cracks work if you know what the hell youre doing. my suggestion wouldnt be the sound card at first. unless the sound sounds distorted or crackly. most likely your comp cant handle it. either you dont have alot of ram or your cpu is garbage. so heres some solutions; 1. change your buffer. 2. dont use so many cpu heavy sounds. ie. tons of sytrus pads all at once. huge chords on multiple sounds will also produce this effect. 3. get more mem. 4. get a new computer. i know what im doing built my own computer. if you have any more problems stop by my dmusic site grab my sn and ill see how i can help you
CJWeaver	Date: September 9, 2005 @ 1:35 PM thats exactly what i was trying to say, i just suck at wording
