Hello all,

i wonder if someone else has this problem too.
If have a track which causes with Asio4all and my onboard soundcard approx. 70% at the CPU Meter. If I choose the Asio Driver of my Saffire 6 USB Interface it runs into overload after 3 sec. of play. Trying the MME Version of the Saffire 6 USB results in crackeling sound.

Is this a known issue?

best regards,

Check your buffers sizes and try increasing them.

I already increased it to the maximum (2048), and tried different sample rates, but always the same result -> overload...

I have to systems (desktop and laptop) and especially the desktop should have no problems resources-wise. With Cubase 6 Artist the Saffire 6 works fine, on both systems,also.
