hello same issue here,my prime suspect was an east west instrument,no CPU saturation ,only a scary pop and no sound ,i did what Rounik says (repair permissions) an for now it works how often do i have to do this procedure ? what does this procedure do, exactly,? can you explain to me please? thank you Rounik Hector

Hi Hector, Glad it's helped. Repair permissions is a maintenance procedure that many users do before and after installing applications, and I tend to do every two weeks or so. (The more frequently I run it, the less time it takes). Here's a link to an Apple Support article about it: [url]http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751[/url] I don't have this issue of the popping sound so can't really say whether you will need to repair permission frequently or not. I Hope not, but next time you hear a pop, try quitting all other applications, if it's still a problem, restart Logic, if no joy, repair permissions and restart your mac. Let me know how you get on. Cheers Rounik

hi again Rounik same thing again, i am almost sure that is somethig about PSP Vintage Warmer because when the sound drops out the only channel that dont seems to get any sound was the out 1.2 and i had the VW on that , when i press bypass sound comes again.i just upgrade logic 8.0.2 so do you have VW, ? does any one has this problem ? thank you HECTOR

Hi Hector, Unfortunately, I don't have PSP Vintage Warmer. So, when you bypass the PSP VW plug-in the sound still drops out? If so, try saving your project as a newly name project (File > Save project as...), then on the newly named project take out all instances of the PSP VW plug-in. Save the project and see if the problem persists. It could make sense that this is related to 3rd party plug-ins. Cheers Rounik

Hi guys! Here's a quote from pspaudioware website :"Limitations to demo versions: Depending on the product, either the processing stops every 30 sec for 1 sec or or you will hear permanent low level noise (at about -60dBFS typically) and occasional 1 sec noise every 20 sec (at below -30dBFS typically)." Is your Vintage Warmer a demo version ?

hello again christian ,i have purchase the VW,and is not and ordinary drop out ,in the beginning is a very loud pop and then sound drops out, rounik if i bypass for now the problem goes away if i enable again ,it works fine ,but later at any time it happend again,and if i let the playhead playing, i cant hear anything, no itunes, no nothing, if i play stop the sound may be come back, may be not in the final comes again , but when i bypass VW sound comes again always , i will try what you tell me Rounik but let me tell you that work in this way is very stressing (expecting a very loud pop at any time) thank you for your help and support hector

[quote:35004]i will try what you tell me Rounik but let me tell you that work in this way is very stressing (expecting a very loud pop at any time) [/quote] I can imagine! It's far from a good situation. ...Hector, are you using the zoom as your audio interface? If so, try using the built-in audio only... Also, do contact PSP directly to see if they know of this situation. Let us know how you get on. Take care, Rounik

no i dont use the zoom,i use the built in audio, and i ve already contact PSP they tell me ,that if i re insert the plugin usually works, ill see,what happen thanks again for your concern hector

my pleasure Hector. Good luck. Rounik
