Subject:SF7 Recording Problem: Skip?
Posted by: aschwabe

I've had the WEIRDEST problem while recording w/ SF7. I have a P4, 2.6GHz, 1GB RAM, lots of drive space, (and yes, I've turned off the "time recorded" to reduce CPU load - I hope that fix comes out soon...that's REALLY annoying).

When I record into my MAudio Audiophile 2496 the recording is fine. Levels are normal...but the file seems to SKIP when recording. Which is to say, if I record a phrase like, "The next step is to enter your credit card number," it ends up being, "The next step is t-edit card number."

What the....?!

Has anyone else experienced this? It's really strange. I can't say in 5 years of direct to disc recording that I've ever encountered this issue.

Thoughts? Hints? Things to check/uncheck/do/undo?

Defragment and run Scan Disk.

Shut down all non-essential applications such as anti-virus, screen savers,
ect.
To see what's running, select: Cntrl+ Alt+ Delete. aka, three fingar salute.

Im getting the same problems mate.

I have been recording long mixes from my turntables and all through the recording the mix skips etc. Not very nice.

I was thinking if it has something to do with buffering but I doubt it.
You should be able to record easily straight to your HDD.

If I figure it out, I'll tell you.
