Hello,

I am recording a grand piano with 2 microphones (L + R) [Avlex Professional Microphones] running via XLR Planet Wave Cables to an Edirol UA-25 Audio/MIDI Interface. I am recording that track in Logic Express 7. The Edirol takes the input from both micrphones and it outputs the sound from Logic into some monitoring headphones. This part here makes me really angry, and this happens every time. When I go to play back the recording some parts of the segment will be repeated when they were not recorded that way, and sometimes absolute static will occur. If I'm recording C, D, C, G, C, then the recording will play back C, D, C, D *Crraaack* *craack*, C.

This does a stupendous job of prohibiting me from making my CD, can someone help me?

Thanks.

Do you have an audio only hard drive?

I have an external firewire 7200 Rpm hard drive which I could use, but as of now the audio is being recorded onto the internal 7200 Rpm iMac G5 hard drive which is also running the software.

Do you think this could be the problem?

I ran all the programs on my iMac but I recorded the audio file to my external hard drive.

This did not solve the problem though, the same thing still occurs. It always happens a few minutes into the song though, it's like the computer gets overloaded or something.

That is strange, what bit depth and sample rate are you recording at?

What other devices do you hve on the USB bus?

Recording at 44.1 Sample Rate with bit depth of 16.

USB Devices are:
Edirol UA-25 Audio/MIDI Interface (already noted)
Apple US Keyboard
Apple Optical Mouse
