也是刚买的,总间断有破音。
问题:在控制界面的硬件那里,缓冲舍维多大比较合适啊?
我已经设到最大了2048,偶尔还是有破音。
按照m-audio上一个帖子的方法,修改了系统的一些设置,大家可以试试,记者交流经验啊!
Pops, clicks and crackles, general
Q: I get Pops and Clicks or Distortion during Playback and/or Recording. What can I do about this?
A:
- Check if you have the most recent driver for your M-Audio device installed.
- The interference is usually caused by Buffer-Components that are not running in Synch. There is a number of Hardware- and Software-Buffers. Here is a list of the Buffers that allow to change their settings:
1. Adjusting the Buffer Sizes of your M-Audio device: Open your USB Audio device’s control panel and try different buffer settings. Use larger buffers for save playback (clicks are less likely to occur), use smaller buffers for shorter latency.
2. Adjust the Threat-Priority. Normal/High (M-Audio Duo USB only).
3. Deactivate any programs that are running in the background (e.g. virus scanners, messenger programs, CD-R utilities, printer monitors etc.). Check this link to find information on how to disable background applications:
http://www.pacs-portal.co.uk/startup_index.htm
4. Windows virtual memory: Set the same value for Minimum/Maximum (Control Panel-> System -> Advanced->Performance Options->Virtual Memory: e.g. 512/512)
5. Windows File Cache Settings: Set the same value for Minimum/Maximum (Open the file System.ini -> in the section [vcache] -> MinFileCache=16384, MaxFileCache=16384)
6. Windows 2000/XP: If you are using ASIO software applications, the System Performance should be set to "Background Services" (Control Panel-> System -> Advanced -> Performance Options)
7. In Windows XP, you should also adjust the graphic performance as follows: Control Panel -> System -> Advanced -> System Performance -> Settings -> "Adjust for best performance"
8. In Windows XP, System Restore, Automatic Updates and Remote should be deactivated (Control Panel->System).
9. When running Windows 2000/XP, in some cases the Standard-PC Mode brings better results than the ACPI-Mode. Change the mode by updating/changing the driver for "Computer" in Windows' Device Manager. Attention! Switching from Standard PC back to ACPI in Windows XP is not possible. Do not attempt to switch Multi-processor Computers or Laptops to Standard PC mode. This mode is not supported on these computers (Control Panel -> System -> Hardware -> Device Manager -> Computer -> Properties -> Update driver -> Install from a list or specific location -> Don't search I will choose the driver)
Additional Tips related to noise and interferences:
- Make sure that all the drivers for all devices installed in your computer are recent. Install all mainboard- and chipset updates available for your Mainboard. Install all available Windows Windows-Updates, especially for the USB/USB2 controller. Install the latest Windows XP/2000 service packs. If you're using a USB audio interface and have problems with pops & clicks, disconnect all other USB devices and check if the problem still occurs.
- Check if a BIOS Update is available for your Computer's Mainboard (fixes known problems with the Southbridge on Main Boards with VIA Chipsets)
- For Windows 98/ME we recommend to disable the "Auto Insert Notification". (Control Panel -> System -> Device Manager -> CD-ROM -> Settings)
- Deactivate Task-Monitor programs installed by printers. These programs continuously check the status of your printer and are usually not necessary for the general operation of the printer.
- Under no circumstances use 100MHz and 133MHz RAM in the same Computer. Check if the problem still occurs when you are running your computer with only one RAM stick. We also got reports about clicking sounds caused by cheap, low quality RAM.
- IRQ sharing should be avoided is possible. Check the IRQ assignment to see if any device is using the same IRQ as your USB controller or if an IRQ higher than number 15 has been assigned to it (IRQs higher that number 15 are virtual IRQs which are shared with other physical IRQs (0-15)). (Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> System Information -> Hardware Resources -> IRQs)
- If your Main Board is using an older VIA Chipset, it is necessary to download and install the latest VIA 4-in1-Driver (4.37 or higher). Additionally, it might be helpful to download and install the latest USB-filter driver. These drivers are usually included with the Driver CD of your Computer's Main Board and should be installed immediately after the installation of the Windows operating system and before the installation of the driver for the Video-/Graphics card. The most recent VIA-Drivers are available at
http://www.via.com.tw in the section Technical Support-> Drivers.
- If you are using USB devices on a Mainboard with a VIA Chipset running Win98SE, you should also install Microsoft's UHCD-Update:

When using Main Boards with a KT133 or KT133A Chipset, using 100 MHz RAM or "No-Name" RAM is questionable. For these mainboards, only use Brand name RAM running at 133 Mhz and make sure that the SDRAM frequency is set to 133 MHz in your Computer's BIOS.
