Activity Forums VEGAS Pro new Core i5 build = audio dropouts

  • new Core i5 build = audio dropouts

    Posted by Jon Chamberlain on November 17, 2009 at 4:52 pm

    I’ve recently built a Core i5 based workstation for my office editing system, using Vegas Pro 8 and Windows XP Home (all latest versions) with a Tascam US-122 interface (details below*).

    First let me say, I have never had an audio dropout problem on any computer I have used, once tweaked. I am experiencing frequent audio dropouts while using Vegas. And I point the finger at Vegas because I am not getting dropouts while using any other audio playback on say windows media player.

    I have applied all the standard XP system tweaks. I really didn’t expect this on a new state of the art intel system, at this point with computer tech, shouldn’t audio playback be childs play?

    I will give more details if necessary. Any thought please?

    *System: Gigabyte P55M-UD2, Intel Core i5 CPU, 4GB G Skill memory (2 sticks), Gigabyte Geforece 8600 GT vid card, Windows XP Home sp3, Tascam US-122 audio interface

    At what point, when using Vegas, do you experience audio dropouts? From the timeline when previewing? Is the audio part of a video file? More info is needed.

    thanks John,

    Dropouts occur from the timeline playback (pre-rendered or not) and file previews, with video, without video, audio as part of the video file and not…basically anytime.

    I have tried a variety of settings in preferences, included deselecting track buffer, selecting track buffer and adjusting amount/time, tried using all audio device type options, including asio4all.

    I’m just stumped.

    Jon
