Audio Glitches

[LoTekRoolz]

Hi folks. I am using wavelab 4 in my setup as an editor. I frequently check my audio info for glitches and the like. After repeated analyses reporting glitches I decided to do a test before buying a new sound card. I took one of my FAV audio files, copied it, inverted it and mixed it. To my suprise the resulting delta file had zero artifacts. My question: Which is correct? The conflicting results both come from the same program. Please help.

First of all below is a great article from Sound on Sound regarding this issue

They are the real geniuses

If you are receiving glitches after CD extraction in Wavelab try this.
Go to Tools/Import CD Tracks//Options//Use Ultra Safe mode (slow)
Now try and extract audio from a cd.

Now let us know what happens. Sometimes these glitches occur when Wavelab is pulling the audio data from the drive faster than it can release it.

Question: Are the glitches coming from audio files you already had in your machine or from CD's where you are extracting the data?

Another place to check would be the actual Wavelab forum.

They are very good over there as well

Thanks for the tips. I will check the articles out. I'm mostly checking the audio I generate on my drive when writing. I hadn't noticed any obvious glitching on my extractions but will check them too.

Sounds like you may be having an issue with your buffer settings.
Start there first. Information is in the article as well
