Just now I play a youtube video and BAM the audio turns to BUZZZ. I'm looking at the RB cpu usage numbers and they only go about as high as 4%. Usually at less than 1%.


Based on this message and the fact that your drivers are all up do date it is starting to sound like some kind of outside interference. By any chance was your WIFI or cell phone turned off? Or any other electrical appliance. Was anything different during that time like your Internet card turned off or a fan or air conditioner turned off? Was it cooler in your apartment (this would indicate a heat problem in your computer?

AFAIK it were your drivers, buffers etc it would happen at every time. But you recorded for 8 hours with no problems.

Does anyone else in your apartment complex have a problem? Do you have problems with other devices like radios or cell phones? I ask because when JonD lived in an apartment complex he had a bass guitar amp that buzzed like crazy. So bad that he couldn't use it but when he moved just 4 houses from our house the buzz went away.

Are you using new properly shielded cables, both speaker, guitar/bass and mic types? Are you sure that they are ok? Have you tried using just the computer audio chip to eliminate your good audio interface as the problem?

One thing to remember is as you try to find the problem only change one thing at a time. If you change a number of things you will never know where the problem originated.

Good luck and I hope this helps.

Back in my day the only time we started panic buying was when the bartender shouted "last call"!
