I've been trying to diagnose this issue with my POD GO for a while and tonight have really tried to finally dig deeper into this issue. I'll start by saying that I don't have any issues when my headphones are connected. I only have this issue using USB. My configuration is this:
POD GO > USB to 2015 MacBook Pro Running Ableton Live > Headphone Monitors using headphone jack on Macbook
I'll arm a track in Ableton, configure the audio input to look at USB 1/2 and most of the time it is fine. Intermittently I'll get a very digital sounding audio drop/crackle/distortion and then afterwards the latency will be off. Ableton shows that my CPU usage is relatively minimal. I've messed around with different sampling rates to no avail either. I've also used multiple USB cables. The only thing I haven't tried is factory resetting the POD GO. Also the POD GO is running the most recent firmware version, which I hoped would fix this issue.
Has anyone else run into this problem? The goal is for me to record guitar into Ableton but it is becoming frustrating to have an intermittent audio issue during recording.
Edit: I've attached an mp3 file so you can hear my issue. Took a couple minutes of playing before I ran into the issue.
