I have never had this issue before. I recently upgraded my laptop installed the new version of audacity and Rode connect, updated all my drivers and removed unnecessary bloatware pre installed. I am running Windows 11.
However when I am recording I am seeing random skipping in my audio. I tried changing the buffer rate in audacity. I have monitored my CPU load and it never reaches above 4% and I have an M.2 SSD. I did find changing the latency settings in Rode connect made the issue worse. I am using Rode central for now and that seems to be working but I prefer rode connect.
Any insite into why this is happening would be very much appreciated. The only thing I have not tried is using an old version of audacity.
