thepianoist Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Hello all, This issue started about a week ago. From time to time, my system audio will start to get increasingly "static" sounding. It starts off barely noticeable, then becomes overwhelming to the point that you can't hear anything else. When I quit Logic, everything goes back to normal. It has not yet happened without Logic being open. It also goes back to normal if I disconnect my audio interface (iD22), which forces Logic to "reboot" in a way... reloading all samples, switching to a different audio output. I made a video last time it happened. It shows the static slowly getting louder and louder while playing music, until finally quitting logic and everything is fine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxYVJaSQiRc&feature=youtu.be Here's another video showing what happens if I let it go for a good 10-15 minutes... gets to the point that it's just a thumping clicking noise. Again, quit logic and all goes back to normal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5psNxNxs0M&feature=youtu.be Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

Eric Cardenas Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 What kind of audio interface do you use? What happens if you disable core audio in the preferences and then re-enable it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepianoist Posted March 10, 2015 Author Share Posted March 10, 2015 I have an Audient iD22, and disconnecting it makes the issue go away. The question is whether that may just be because it forces Logic to switch outputs and reload all the samples and everything. I have not yet tried to work through the built-in output and have the static happen. The problem with this issue is that it happens seemingly randomly, and sporadically. And each time it happens I can only try one new troubleshooting fix cause the problem goes away and then I have to wait for it to happen again. Lately it's been happening about once or twice per day. Next time it happens I'll try disabling the core audio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Cardenas Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Sounds like a driver issue to me. Try the core audio thing next to see if it fixes it, if it does it's definitely a driver issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoozeboy Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 I'm having the exact same issue, I know it's not the audio interface because the static noise still happens even with my audio interface being disconnected. I tried changing my preferences and disabling all my plug ins but the overwhelming static noise is still there, can somebody please help.
