Clicks and Pops
 

I am running version 3.310 on a Toshiba Laptop with an external soundblaster soundcard, and I am running Windows XP. Throughout my show using hoster, I am getting clicks and pops with the music. All of my windows updates are complete. Could this be an issue with 3.310?

Sounds like an issue with your external soundcard. Try testing the audio with the onboard sound.

If the external soundcard is the issue what can i do to stop the popping?
I really like how it amplifys the sound, but i would rather not have the distracting noise.

what kind of card is it? it is powered through a USB hub or directly into the card

Try using the internal sound and see if the popping stops. If it doesn't, then it is the cables or the amp. If it does, then use new cables and try the external card. It sounds like bad cable connections.

dont even used my external sound card anymore i had sounsblaster extigy, had all kinds of problems with it...im using my internal sound card now, as long as you have a good noise filter and a good mixing board, i have mine plugged into my laptop headphone and into one of the channels on my mackie board ..no humming, hizzing and popping..so far..
