Glitches/crashes with Roland UA-25EX sound card - ASIO protocol (Windows) #97
Comments
Yes, something is definitely wrong with Camomile. Here's an even simpler patch. Just a volume control. When volume is full (i.e. 100%, doing nothing) it sounds fine, but as soon as it tries to change the sound it's wrong - almost like a sample rate problem. I've also just checked the included Bulgroz and Castafiore FX plugins. They are doing the same thing - you can hear the effect is kinda happening, but there's a whole lot of fuzz and glitches too. I tried the FX.VST3 and FX.dll Camomile files, same problem. |
Hi, You don't use any line~ object so the patch generates audio glitches even in Pd when moving the sliders.
You should try to use a different synthesizer than ReaSyn that already sounds "distorted". Are you sure this is the plugin and not ReaSyn that generates a distorted sound? Why not using a simple sinusoidal oscillator? Because, I don't ear any strange artifact on my MacOS machine. Something like that for example:
Also what is the sample rate? Is it Reaper 5.76? |
Thanks for your reply.
Can you think of anything I can change or check related to my Roland external soundcard settings on my main machine? I've never had a problem with any plugins, DAWs, or PureData patches using this driver before. |
Yep, that's strange... |
Apparently FL doesn't have crash logs: https://forum.image-line.com/viewtopic.php?t=74027 |
Why the ASIO buffer size is 288 samples? It's not a power of 2... |
I'm afraid changing the request block size to 32 or 64 makes no difference to the problem. I also can't change the buffer size to a specific number, none of the options offered by the soundcard driver options screen shown above is a power of 2. Also, the FL Studio ASIO driver works fine even if I change its request block size to 100 (from 256). |
And do you have any difference/improvement if you don't use any graphical interface? |
It's really specific and I'm sorry but I don't have the material to test and debug. I guess, we'll have to wait for a kind soul that could help to solve the problem... |
Perhaps this is related to this thread? Can you try with the 32bit version of the plugin? |
Hi Pierre and Richard, |
Hi,
I think the problems is related to the VST ID (see this thread). Perhaps the plugin doesn't give the good ID... I'll check that! @RichardJECooke Thank you both! |
Tried the new version of Camomile you linked to. No difference, still my Roland soundcard driver sounds wrong, my other ASIO driver sounds fine. |
Hi, |
I guess the audio driver can force a DAW to use different audio block sizes that weren't managed by the plugin |
Can you tell me if you have better results with the last release? |
@RichardJECooke could try ticking the “Use smaller Asio buffer size” box in preferences and see if there is any difference? |
Will try the new stuff soon, thanks. Just busy with some things currently |
Any news? |
I close this due to lack of activity, feel free to reopen if needed. |
Firstly, thanks so much for this VST wrapper! So useful.
I made a simple bandpass plugin in PurrData to test it:
And it displays fine in a DAW, here in Reaper:
But the sound is bad. Phasing and crackling.
Windows 10, Reaper 64 bit.
Please would you spare a minute to take a look and see what I've done wrong?
I've attached a .zip file of the patch and the Reaper sample project.
