Crackles with IOS APPS

Postby dancemad » Mon May 21, 2018 3:05 am

Anyone else getting crackles on iOS amplitub. Happens for me within about 5 minutes of starting the app. Must force quit app and restart to get a clean sound again.

Am using a brand new iPad and have turned off all the settings which suggest to do so under these circumstance.

Am trying really hard to find a reliable Amplitube setup for stage play, however, the buggieness is dominating my effort.

I am also wondering if it might be the new iRig Stomp io pedal. As the desktop version with the Stomp is also buggy and freezes when switching from bank mode to pedal mode.

All very frustrating as the sounds I get when it’s working are wonderful.

That is not the normal experience, they will typically respond within one business day (M-F, 10a-7p EST). Please check your junk/spam folders and if there's nothing there please PM your ticket number and I'll have someone see what happened.

I just started using the stomp IO and noticed the crackling noise when connected to my ipad (gen 5) as well as an overall uninspiring sound. I tried to create an clean (no effects, no amps) patch and whether through headphones or plugged into my egnater rebel the sound quality is poor compared to just plugging straight into the amp.
Until seeing this thread I assumed I was getting RF interference and was going start changing cables/turning off my electronics to identify where the noise was coming from.
I guess I will download Amplitude4 to my imac and see if there is a difference in sound quality and the crackling noise followed by changing latency settings.

This should only be an issue if you have that very specific model of iPad. I'd recommend consulting IK Support directly at http://www.ikmultimedia.com/contact-sup ... -hardware/ so they can verify and if that's not the case they can get you working properly.

I installed Amplitude4 to my imac and noticed better sound quality yet there was still crackling. I went to settings/audio midi setup and adjusted buffer size until the crackling stopped.
