Working on it. I think what concerns me is the software binning a 90 min performance because of one perceived violation. A violation that we have every expectation that nobody else will ever find. By that measure, no home reader will ever pass noise. But they do. Using Mastering and Legacy ACX Check...

I've been operating this way for years and have never had a problem. So what happened in the last bunch of time? Billions of people have started to use Zoom, Skype or other communications, chat or meeting software. Those are famous for changing your sound settings in the background without telling ...

Did you start using Skype, Zoom or other conferencing or chat program? They like to take over your sound services and settings. Quite a few people are discovering some of the chaos that can cause.

I do have my output coming from the interface as opposed to the laptop headphone jack, because apparently that's a no-no. If you listen to the computer, you can't hear your live performance without a delay or echo. You don't have to set recording latency, either. All that does is make it when you h...
