rhythmicdevil Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Hi, I have just moved from Windows XP to Windows 7, I know, late to the party, but better late than never. My XP system was rock solid but I am having a strange problem with the new setup. If the POD HD Pro is turned on, Windows audio slows down to half speed and gets distorted. If I turn it off the audio returns to normal. It does not seem to affect audio when using Cubase. The POD HD Pro is connected to a USB 3.0 input. The audio interface is a Presonus Audio Box 1818VSL also connected to USB 3.0 I have reinstalled the drivers for both devices. I am just starting my investigation so I dont have a lot of information yet. Thanks Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealZap Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 best to use a USB 2.0 port if you have one... USB 3.0 isn't as backwards compatible as you'd think... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhythmicdevil Posted November 13, 2014 Author Share Posted November 13, 2014 Hmm its looking like USB 3.0 might be causing the problem according to Google. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhythmicdevil Posted November 13, 2014 Author Share Posted November 13, 2014 I set the POD HD Pro and the Audiobox onto USB 2.0 ports and the problem remains. I moved the Audiobox onto a 3.0 port and left the POD on the 2.0 port the problem remains. I will do more research. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triryche Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 In the Windows Sound controls have you tried disabling the HD Pro and explicitly selecting the Presonus as the default? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhythmicdevil Posted November 15, 2014 Author Share Posted November 15, 2014 Turning it off in the Windows Sound Control seemed to have been the trick. Thanks for the tip man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
