Zebra's Zebrify plug in caused random crackle noise in GB

Hi, following on from weeks of random crackle in all of my songs in GB I have found that Zebra's free plug in Zebrify is causing the random crackle noises.
I finally managed to isolate the noise to 2 tracks and when hearing the crackle I clicked on and off the Zebrify effect which dissapeared at the same time.
If anyone else suffers this I hope this helps. Equally If anyone has had probs with Zebrify in GB I would love to hear all the same.

Try "isolcpus=1" in your kernel entry.

Crackling noise on my mbp

Hi there,
I bought my macbook around December-ish and now for the past few days I have been noticing random "crackling" noises. They are soft but getting louder, or maybe I think that because I am watching for them. Before they used to just come from either the right or left end of my mbp, but now I can hear it in my headphones too when I have them plugged in. I tried Antipop without help and have searched various threads on here without finding a solution for my problem. I was wondering if anybody can tell me the reason and how to resolve it.

Help urgently needed re- random crackle in GB

Hi all, been using GB for 2 years and have suffered on and off with random crackles while recording or especially when mixing or converting to an i-life preview or itunes, lately though it seems to be onevery track and stopping me from finishing my album. Im no tech master but Ive done a lot fo checks with my m audio fast track interface and my imac and cannot be sure still which is the culprit..ive disconnected my fast track and done tests converting i-life previews of songs and Im still getting random 5-10 second crackles all the time so im guessing its some kind of problem matching the interface with my imac, but whyis it so random and why can some songsbe worked on effortlessly without this noise and others have it a lot- the crackle cna appear at quiet moments a lot but also it can be anywhere within a song. I use a lot of internal GB Fx but do ahve large RAM to cope with it I think. As I say any advice or anyone that has suffered with this particularly in mastering or the end stages of converting to itunes etc please any help appreciated. There must be a solution.

hi,
ive spent a week on this one song trying every possible version to eradicate the crackle. Ive dumped excess Fx's and tracks that werent really that important. I even heard and saw the crackle show up on one particular LED track volume bar and so I thought great Ive found which AU plugin is causing the prob, which was a synth called Podolski. So i muted this track and did another mix without it.....crackle still on the song.
Can i emphasise that I dont hear the crackle very often or atall on some songs when playing the song in GB...it always comes after Ive done the i-life preview in GB or comverted to itunes to hear it so its hard to tell if its actaully on the song itself or that the crackle is something that is caused by diffrent buffer systems speeds battling with each other. Since you cant alter GB buffer preferences I am lost as to what to do now.
the song has quite a lot of FX and about 10 tracks in total. Ive tried to minimize the amount of mastering FX in GB on this song aswell. PLease any ideas?

Hi There,
The subject header just about says it all. This is the first action I took with MAX - it is a fresh install. The file I wanted to save was still written and the FP seems to be working ok. However, I need to know what happened.
I can't post the whole log file due to the amount of characters allowed on this post. I can cut and paste sections if there is a specific part of the file you need. Below is the first section and last section.

Hi,
I did a research on your error message and it seems this problem was introduced with MAX 4.6. This version switched to a new error reporting mechanism and reports even errors that are which are not critical to your task.
These errors typically show up as "unexpected" and if your error falls into this category have a look to this KB for further assistance.
If it doesn't fall into this category, your could try to go back to the MAX 4.5 or 4.4.. Of course you would need to reinstall some components and might not be able to use newer drivers at all.
Let me know.

MAX error, niGPIBsys.dll plug-in caused an exception

Trying to connect to hardware via the local network to send ASCII strings. I can ping the static IP address successfully, but can't get anything from it in LabVIEW.
VISA resource at the moment is TCPIP0::xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx::INSTR, which I think is right.
MAX returns this error on startup:
The niGPIBsys.dll plug-in caused an exception in the CmxSysExpertManager::FinalizeExpert function in the NIMax process.
See these files for details:
C:\ProgramData\National Instruments\MAX\Logs\20130709_091257-NIMax-00001848.log
C:\ProgramData\National Instruments\MAX\Logs\20130709_091257-NIMax-00001848.dmp
Then won't make new devices.
VISA and 488 have both been reinstalled, and the nearest error I could find was number 6 here:
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/6CA56E2DDBCCA06086257591006141EE?OpenDocument
... but PAE is definitely not enabled.
Thanks in advance for any suggestion.
(LabVIEW version 11.0 32-bit, windows 7, hardware is a Votsch Industrial Oven with static IP address)

Sorry, I'm confused myself.
LabVIEW communication with one instrument works when I manually entered TCPIP0::xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx::INSTR, so over the local network. It also worked when I connected it to my computer with a USB cable because the USB::<something> option came up in the drop down list of the VISA resource name panel straight away.
With the other instrument, it has both USB and ethernet sockets, I couldn't get a response using the same TCPIP format as above, even though I know the IP address (and I tried all combinations of w/ wout/ INSTR) and I could ping it. Haven't been able to plug it into anything with USB directly as I can't get a computer near it at the moment. Tried LabVIEW's VISA serial read write example programme... does that not make sense then? I got error -1073807343.
So I tried to use MAX according to tutorials and encountered the above problems. I suspect the MAX problem is seperate to my VISA connection problems. Can MAX not be used to find and configure connections both USB (is this the same as GPIB?) and TCPIP?

Crackle noise with plug-ins at the beginning of a region

I've experienced problems with some TC plug-ins and logic. Mostly with the Brickwall Limiter and TC Helicon Voice Modeler.
When I insert one of those plug-ins in a track, the crackle noise occures when the SPL is almost before the start of the region. So, when this region starts at measure 5 I hear this crackle noise somewhere in measure 4 (also in the bounce). And here is the most stupid workaround!! I have to place a dummy region before measure one of the song. Now, I can bounce the song (from measure -1). I still have this crackle at the beginning of my bounce (before the music starts) but now I can cut it because its at the beginning of the song. The crackle doesn't occure a second time, only when the first region on this track is passed.
I had some consultation with TC and they asked me to send them a file although they didn't know about this phenomenon.
They also recommended to experiment with "automatic delay compensation" and buffer size but it didn't help. Any ideas??

Flash plug in causes Firefox 4.0.1 (on Vista Business) to hang

Flash plug in causes Firefox4 (on Vista Business) to hang, on sites with flash content (videos, etc)
I tried everything I found in firefox forums (uninstalling - reinstalling the plugin, disabling hardware accelaration, etc ), but it was useless
I tried installing Firefox 5.0b2 and I have the same problem: with the flash plug in activated, I get CPU usage up to 100% and Firefox hangs...

Make sure that you allow the plugin-container process in the firewall.
You can try to disable the hardware acceleration in the Flash Player.

Flash player plug-in causing safari to crash

Hello,
I have been having a lot of problems lately with the flash player plug-in causing safari to lockup and at times crash. I have gone to the adobe website and reinstalled the flash player, but it still is happening. Is any one else having this problem? It happens on a wide variety of sites, and not just one. Any ideas why this is happening. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Thanks for the files, that was really helpful. Google Image Search doesn't use Flash, but we're investigating a couple issues specific to this Intel 4000 chipset that have been reported on both Mac (Yosemite specifically) and Windows over the last couple weeks.
It's unlikely that Flash is causing this, just because we're interacting with the GPU at a pretty high level of abstraction. My suspicion is that this is a graphics driver bug.
My guess is that if you disable Hardware Acceleration in Flash and/or Safari, that this will go away. It's not an optimal solution, but it should give you a temporary workaround and confirm that we're looking in the right place.
The video troubleshooting guide includes instructions on disabling hardware acceleration in Flash:
https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html
I don't see an easy option in Safari 8 for disabling hardware acceleration, so let's start with that.

As of Firefox 36, disabling OMTC causes random crashes

As of Firefox 36, disabling OMTC causes random crashes in Firefox. This is particularly concerning, as THIS very support site (support.mozilla.org) has "please try disabling OMTC" as a common suggestion for a number of screen rendering issues. I think that going forward, asking people to "try disabling OMTC" will only WORSEN the issue, as a catastrophic Firefox crash which could cause loss of data is much worse than a screen rendering glitch.
To be clear, I am referring to the following setting in about:config:
layers.offmainthreadcomposition.enabled = FALSE

hello, could you provide your latest few submitted crash reports? please enter '''about:crashes''' into the location bar, copy the latest few report ids from there starting with '''bp-''' & paste them here into a forum reply. thank you

Got the same problem – even after the upgrade to OSX 10.10.1. A restart usally helps. Even though the calls sometimes drop I got no crackling noise problem on iOS, though.

Logic 8.0 with Snow Leopard - Addictive Drums plug-in causes Logic to crash

I just bought a new iMAC with Snow Leopard and installed Logic 8.0.
It seems to run OK but one particular plug-in causes Logic to crash.
It's Addictive Drums by XLN Audio.
It runs OK in Logic and ProTools LE8 on my MacBookPro which has Leopard.
XLN Audio are so far mystified.
Another drum plug-in, Superior Drums 2.0 and Altiverb both work fine.
I'm upgrading to Logic 9 this weekend hoping that this will sort it.
It seems that AD has a problem with Snow Leopard.
Anyone else encountered this problem?

Yes...version shows as 8.0.2 (1502.22)
Reading some the negative comments on the forum re.Logic 9 I'm beginning to wonder if it's worth upgrading from 8. It doesn't seem likely to be the solution and may cause more problems.
I've heard the new guitar amp features are excellent though which interests me.

The mysterious crackling noise

Yes, this is another crackling noise post. But hopefully, it will be peculiar enough to capture your curiosity long enough to provide me with an answer
Like so many others, I get crackling noises on my recordings. However, this only started occuring after upgrading to Leopard and Logic 8 Pro (which, unfortunately, happened at the same time, so I'm not quite sure which of these might be the culprit).
I mainly record to my computer using an POD X3 Live, connected through an USB interface. I haven't been able to test recording with the POD to another machine that has Logic 8 and Leopard on it, but I know that the sound output from the POD is clean of any crackling noises.
Like any good Logic user is supposed to, I started changing my buffer size and buffer range to eliminate the crackling noises, though I really didn't like doing it. I've a reasonably powerful computer, after all, and should be able to use very small buffers. I WAS using very small buffers in Logic 7 under Tiger, far smaller than I can use now.
However, switching to larger buffer sizes didn't eliminate the crackling noises, only slightly reduced the frequency at which they appear. So, I'm drawing the conclusion that this is not related to my computer power, especially since my HD and CPU meters at the bottom of the Logic 8 never go above 5-10%, at the very most.
The only thing I've been able to connect to the crackling noises is that they appear with far greater frequency when I've used the computer for other stuff before recording without restarting. So, having played a game for a while or watched a movie will almost always ensure I get crackling noises unless I restart before using Logic 8 to record.
I'm even starting to wonder if the additional GB of RAM I installed at the same time as upgrading to Leopard and Logic 8 might be the cause. But I've had none of the other common problems normally connected to a bad RAM module (random shutdowns, etc).
So, does anyone have an idea about what might cause this? The POD? The USB connection? The RAM, Leopard, Logic 8, or my removal of the curve in the new transparent dock? A particularily bad taste in movies and computer games?

@twits celso: The interface I use is the POD X3 Live. It's a guitarboard/recording interface that is connected via USB.
But many thanks for your two suggested solutions. I'll be trying them both, and post the results!
@noeqplease: The POD is very compatible with Leopard. Line6 (the makers) had the new Leopard POD drivers up on their webpage a few hours after the release of Leopard. Give me a little more credit than trying to run an USB-connected audio interface/recording device with old drivers
However, it might very well be the drivers, but no other Leopard users on the Line6 forums have reported similar problems, which leads me to believe Logic might be involved in this, somehow...

So I have a 1.5 year old Macbook Pro (Early 2011) and since last week, it has been making a crackling noise that has escalated to a grinding noise. I went to Genius - they told me my HD was fine, but they could do nothing about the noise. I'm super upset

I have a Macbook Pro that I bought new in August of 2011. It's been wonderful up until now. Last week, I was watching a lot of Netflix for a day, but then it began making a tiny crackling noise when I started my computer. It wasn't really bothersome, but then it's escalated into a grinding noise. A loud grinding noise. I haven't been watching Netflix and barely use any of my applications. My RPMs vary when I'm idle and can go up to 5000. Sometimes, it falls to as low as 1600.
I went to the Genius Bar today and the technician did two diagnostics to test the HD and the parts as a whole. Everything was fine. I was like, ***. Anyways, I asked if there could be anything done for the fans because I was willing to pay (I'm out of warranty). But he said they couldn't DO ANYTHING. That I would have to deal with the annoying noise. I called up Apple and told them what happened and she said that there was nothing else that could be done.
I am so ****** because I did pay good money for this product and I expect to have the option to repair, ESPECIALLY since I'm willing to pay for the repair. Can anyone tell me what to do? Did anyone ever have this problem?

I would guess the fan is the cause of the noise. Suggest you take a look at it.
This site has a wealth of information about getting inside a Macbook or Macbook Pro.
