    I had a situation like this once – not with SD3 but another application.
    Check to see if all your stand alone applications and your audio interface are all set to the same sample rate. Things be set at different sample rates can cause this issue.

    Thanks RuffRider. I checked and they are the same. Can’t seem to find a way to fix this. Hopefully Toontrack will be able to help.

    Thanks,

    Toontrack,

    Still haven’t heard from you on this.

    What sound device are you using? Are you using the latest ASIO drivers?

    BTW, this being the Feedback & Request forum, techs don’t usually check for support questions here.

    The S3 support forum is located here:

    While I can’t speak for Toontrack,
    I can suggest that you try posting your issue in the SuperiorDrummer3 Support area:
    ( https://www.toontrack.com/forum/superior-drummer-3-support/ )

    I don’t know who monitors the threads here in the “Requests & Feedback” area.

    edit: Whoops!! It seems that I posted just a little too late…

    Scott,

    I’m using a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 USB interface. I am using the most up to date driver. I actually contacted them first because I thought it was a driver issue as well. Not sure what to do but this is so frustrating. Maybe a new interface would help?

    Thanks,

    Josh

    I really can’t think of why you would experience popping and clicking. I have a Core i7 16GB RAM machine running S3 standalone with an RME Digiface at a 32 samples buffer with no clicks/pops. Strange that the clicks/pops are still there when you raise the buffer.

    So, when you run in a DAW with the same buffer and S3 preset, there is no clicks? Only in standalone? Is any particular preset better or worse? The preset doesn’t matter?

    Hi Scott,

    Yeah it’s weird. I did notice that it doesn’t happen on all presets. It actually happens more on the ones I create, but I don’t go crazy with an overload of effects. Usually just some EQ, compression, and transient on the snare, EQ and compression on the bass drum, and some EQ/compression on the toms and room mics.

    What’s strange is that it ONLY happens when I stop playing as the drums ride out. I hear nothing while playing. I’m thinking I should try a new interface. RME are supposed to have incredible drivers, but they are expensive as hell.

    I don’t use a DAW. I record within SD3 and export my drum tracks to a Tascam DP-24 multitrack portastudio.

    Thanks,

    Josh

    Scott,

    I figured this out. I noticed that the pops and clicks were only happening on presets I created with the Nocturnal Phoenix preset kick used as a stack. I removed it from every preset and the pops and clicks are gone! Must be something weird with that sample. It’s a bummer because I really like that one, but I guess it is what it is.

    Thanks,

    Josh
