Topic: Tool to find dropped samples

[Karl]

If only it were that easy.

Some basic stuff:  when you are transferring, turn off all the other stuff on your computer.

Kill background processes.

Disconnect from internet - disable your connection.

Disable anti-virus.

Turn off auto-play on your CD/DVD drives.

Don't open or read from your CD/DVD drives.

Use a transfer program that doesn't use tons of resources (ie Wavelab isntead of something like Sony Vegas).

Turn off everything except the program that is recording

All that IS turned off on my jb3

I found a sweet little plug-in to take care of all the pops.  Waves X-Crackle.  It removes obvious pops without ruining any of the original source.  To check it, you can easily hear only what you remove to make sure you're not taking out to much.

X-Click seems to work also, but not as easily.

Also, looking back (since it's been three months since this thread has been active) the problem was that my jb3's optical input was bad. Since then I've acquired a new jb3.

Maybe I missed spmething (sorry if so), but you want the above turned off on your desktop/laptop

I was never recording to my PC, that's why it's not relevant.
