Kx Driver Latency Issue... -ACID Product Family - MAGIX Community Forums Archive

Subject:Kx Driver Latency Issue... Posted by: mindsore Date:7/23/2004 8:41:34 PM Well, I've just installed the Kx Driver for my SBLive 5.1 (yeah it's kinda old now, but I'm broke!). Nevermind the nightmare of figuring out the mixer (esp. the DSP part), which I am starting to get the hang of, but I have noticed something that I can't figure out: Whenever I open an Acid project that I made before I upgraded my drivers, I get a really odd fast stuttering sound on all of the tracks... kind of that funky Aphex Twin-ish snare effect. I played with the latency and set it to the highest setting, and it helps, but then if I start a new project with the latency set to 5, everything is okay. I tried re-saving all of my wav's in 48000khz thinking this might be it, but it doesn't seem to help. I just played with it some more, and when I SOLO the wav's they are fine, it's only when they are played together, or if others are MUTED that they get that problem. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks everyone! -D
