hello to everyone- i'm using xp- and the latensy is 7ms. i 've occasionaly clicks on the sts- depends on the dsp load on sfp- any tips? In general my system is full optimised and have no other problem at all- i 'm using halion for sampling but i want to free cpu resources for reactor -

i guess that sts2000 doesn't produce clicks with optimization or noone knows what else to check ? To subhuman- u don't experience clicks at all or sometimes it just happen? maybe its sts2000 problem and other sampler works good?

Please answer me to that. Does Sts produce clicks or it is my system?

I haven't noticed any clicks with STS5000, SFP 3.1a, ASUS P4TE, WinXP yet, but I "only" used 8 channels of it, and for drums... I couldn't find any information on the computer that you are using?

Are you running WinXP in Standard or ACPI mode?

Well, my Xp was configured as Acpi and i changed that to standard Pc. I played for a while with the different samplerate and Ulli settings and found that in my system there is only a click free setting -96khz -2ms !!!!
In that resolution everything is clear but i will work at a lower resolution for dsp economy.. Can u tell me why this happens? I found out that at a lower Ulli setting Sts produse less clicks!!?? But at 7ms 44100 sts is unusable in my system so i use halion-

Since now i haven't heard Pulsar in 96 khz reso.. i found it very good so to think to work in that resolution- what's your opinion?

If I use large samples with my STS-4000 (for example the ultimate piano collection) sometimes I receive clicks, too.
But cos I have pulsar1, I can not go under 13 ms at 44,1 MHz. And if I use 96 kHz, the polyphony is very reduced.
System: 98se, Athlon 1,4, 512 MB DDR-RAM, AMD-761-chipset.

So any other ideas??
can it be a graphic card problem (i have an intel 770i agp card with 8 mb of memory) ? thanx in advance

fra77x it could be your graphic card, yeah, try lowering your screen resolution to 800x600 and messing with the graphics acceleration slider (try turning it down). Put the settings back if this doesn't fix it.

Any particular types of programs/sounds that do this? Are the samples coming from a .WAV that you made, from an AKAI sample CD (which one?) or converted using some translation program? Maybe soundfonts recorded with an SBLive? Check your envelope settings - maybe your attack is set really low - a 0 attack time can cause clicks, raising it to 3 or so can eliminate that type of click. More information needed - then I can give more ideas and even test on my setup to see if I have the issue too or if its a config setting on your machine.
