WHITE NOISE PROBLEM??

Postby OMER13 » Wed Jan 01, 2020 5:49 pm

Hi, i created free version of Tracks5 Custom Shop on Logic Pro, but white noise is coming intermittently when i use any plugin on the channel,

in addition, Metering plugin is not showing up LUFS and DR value, it seems only Peak and RMS

Could you please explain the reason of this asap ?

Hello OMER13 and welcome to the forums.

Make sure you authorise your TR5CS using the Authorisation Manager that will have been installed at the same time. The serial number can be found in your User Area.

AFAIK, the CS version only includes certain elements of the Metering Suite. You need to purchase the full version to get the full Metering module.

Hope that helps.

<< too slow, but already typed :) >>

Hello OMER13 and welcome to the forum.

TRackS 5 Custom Shop is free, but you still need to Authorise it. Download and install the latest Authorization Manager from here:
https://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/authorizationmanager/
and Authorise TR5 using the Serial Number that you will find in your User Account / My Products section.

I think that the Metering in TR5 CS does not include the advanced metering features.
... we have also provided you with a basic metering section which contains detailed displays of peak and RMS values of your audio material.
I would think that you could try out the full metering in demo mode, for 14 days. Details of how to try out the plug-ins are in the TR5 User Manual.

hi all, thanks for your feedbacks, but white noise is still coming and it is giving below warning for all plugins although I try to authorise it again with the latest Authorization Manager;

"This model has not been activated, do you wish to enter the Custom Shop onow to try out or purchase this model?"

Do you have any idea related with this subject ?

T-Racks 5 Custom Shop is free and includes these gear models:

  • Classic T-RackS Equalizer – a high quality six-band parametric EQ, specially designed to achieve high-end performance in a mastering environment
  • Metering – a limited version of the complete metering section to have level, phase and frequency under a single, easy to read display for immediate access

The other gear models can be loaded for trial periods of 14 days.
1.3.4 - Trying Gear
You can also choose to try out a piece of gear (clicking the TRY button) to audition it in your existing rig before actually buying it. Every item in the Custom Shop has a 14 days unrestricted trial time. When an item is selected for trial, the time left for its evaluation is shown in the corresponding item menu.

Once the trial time has expired, the item will be locked – it will be greyed out. Once the trial time has expired the module will only be purchasable on the Custom Shop or IK online store.


You need to have the Custom Shop program running too (and not minimised, I think).

The intermittent white noise is, I think, because you have not selected to try the gear model.

Sorry for reviving an old thread but my problem seems to build from what was discussed here.

I had the exact same problem as the OP and sorted it from the tips provided here.
However; and this is the problem.... now, all of a sudden, I get the white noise every now and then despite having not only disabled but removed all the IK plugins from the project.
It plays LOUD and gives me a jump scare every time (plus it makes my ears hurt)

I started a completely new project without using any IK stuff... it still happened.
This is completely messing up my work flow.
Anyone else who's experienced this?

Edit: typos

Greetings; I can concur...

if you are having a problem recently with Tracks5 and Tracks6 authorization problems, which include popups and static every time you open one of the plugins, do the 'Try' thing..

hit the 'Try' button... if you get another popup with a green check mark indicating that the trial period has ended click 'ok' thru and the plug should work fine without static..

I have been going back and forth with Tech support for 2 weeks and finally got it; to their credit, they did help at least get me on the right path toward figuring it out... y'all helped too..

hit the 'try' button... try it!

I have the same problem with the noise in Ableton Suite 12.1.
When i try to open the plugin window, Ableton crashes. I cant even see if the problem is with the authorisation.
