Full on distorsion with semipro audio interface #49

Open MiBiT-Discuss opened 10 years ago

MiBiT-Discuss commented 10 years ago

After basic installation, right away there is heavy distorsion (like a loud sawtooth) almost blowing my speakers. I turned them off and tried again.

Wavetap had set itself as default for audio out. In "Audio/MIDI" wavetao is at 44.1khz and 32bit, My audio interface, the RMI Babyface, is at the same bit depth and sample rate. Totally unusable I'm afraid.

I yanked the Audio interface and tried the built-in sound for now. This is 24bits 44.1khz. No distorsion. So basically Wavetap works as long as you don't have specific audio interface?

I have a Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 with the exact same issue.

Same here.

Hmm...I actually use the same interface and haven't had any of those problems. When it's functioning as a virtual interface, WavTap's pretty fragile to system changes. In particular, I don't know if it can handle having sample rate or bit depth changed. It would be great to see that made more robust—if anyone has some time and experience with osx audio frameworks, code patches would be greatly appreciated.
