MilkyTracker Support / Audio interface issues
« on: February 19, 2014, 23:21:12 »
I have a Focusrite Saffire 6 USB audio interface connected to a Windows 7 PC running MilkyTracker v0.09.86 and I am experiencing regular playback issues and freezes.

The application regularly stops producing audio after a few minutes when using this device and I'm not sure if it is a software (MilkyTracker) or hardware/driver (audio interface) issue. When the sound stops working the GUI is usually still responsive - I can edit patterns and load in songs - but it won't make any sounds when pressing the virtual keyboard, and Play Sng (and Enter) stop working. At this point if I attempt to close the application the title displays "MilkyTracker - ... (Not Responding)" and eventually I have to end the process.

I have tried changing the driver in the Config -> I/O settings:

1 Waveout (old) - Causes the application to become unresponsive

2 Waveout (Vista) - Requires a 85.3ms 4k buffer to playback properly and then freezes after about 5 minutes

3 Unspecified (RtAudio4)  - "Sound driver initialization failed. Try different settings or driver."

4 ASIO  (RtAudio4) - "Sound driver initialization failed. Try different settings or driver." This is the one I expected to work.

5 DirectSound (RtAudio4)   - works but stops playing audio after several minutes


I use the audio interface with Ableton and it works just fine.
