Hi,<br><br>I have been having this problem off and on for a while, but never thought it would do any good to post on this forum about it.&nbsp; However, I have a lead now.&nbsp; <br><br>I have an Edirol FA-101 hooked up to pd in Ubuntu Gutsy, with the rt kernel.&nbsp; If pd is running by itself, everything sounds great.&nbsp; If jack is running in non-realtime and there are lots of things going on, everything sounds great except there are big pauses in midi/audio throughput.&nbsp; If jack is running in realtime everything BUT pd sounds great, while pd produces feint pops, with feedback.&nbsp; <br>
<br>And what I just noticed today, if I start another JACK application afterwards, the pops go away and everything is runnnig smooth in realtime.&nbsp; I don&#39;t know if it is just any application, but what I am explaining happened when I opened audacity to try to record the output of pd&#39;s wierdness.<br>
<br>I&#39;ve only had this issue with pd.&nbsp; Does this make sense to anyone?<br><br>-rich<br>
