Subject:Acid 4.0, Spektral delay, snaps, crackles and pops

I'm having a problem using NI's Spektral Delay (v1.5.2) under Acid 4.0... I have finally got this working using the VST version of SD inside Cakewalk's (formerly FXpansion's) VST-DX wrapper.

Now, the thing is that there are all sorts of ticks, clicks, buzzes etc. when I try and use SD. When I tried this with SD v1.0, I got a dialog box popping up saying something about varying buffer sizes (? I can check this again, but I'll have to uninstall 1.5.2/reinstall 1.0).

Using the same setup under another program (Vegas Audio 2.0 LE, again in the VST wrapper) everything works perfectly...

Other VST plugins work fine in Acid (using the wrapper).

Any suggestions? Any secret registry tweaks ? ;)

One thing I did notice under Acid is that the number of bands in SD is something like 985 - not the 1024 I would expect... I don't know how I might be able to change this (I guess it's a function of Acid??)

Thanks,

john..

Replying to my own post, how sad...

Anyway, it looks like Acid 4.0c has fixed this problem - Spektral Delay now reports 512 available bands, and there are no clicks/pops in the rendered output.

So, I wonder what has fixed that? I'm still guessing at some internal buffer thing...
