A Troubleshooting
AudioDesk authorization doesn’t succeed
When authorizing AudioDesk, the OK
button does not become active until you
have entered in your name and a valid
keycode. Your name must contain at least
3 characters, and you must enter the
keycode provided with your AudioDesk
installer disc. Additionally, the
AudioDesk installer disc must be
inserted.
Clicks and pops due to hard drive
problems
If you have checked your clock settings
and you are still getting clicks and pops in
your audio, you may have a drive related
problem. Set your Clock Source to
Internal and try recording just using the
analog inputs and outputs of the
MicroBook. If you encounter the same
artifacts you may want try using another
drive in your computer. Clicks and pops
can also occur when the drive is severely
fragmented, the disk drivers are
outdated, or other drive-related issues. If
you are using a USB hard drive on the
same bus as the MicroBook, it could be
that the USB bus is overloaded (too many
devices on the same bus). Try removing
all devices except the MicroBook.
Connecting or powering gear during
operation
It is not recommended that you connect/
disconnect, or power on or off devices
connected to the MicroBook while
recording or playing back audio. Doing
so may cause a brief glitch in the audio.
Monitoring - How to monitor inputs?
Please refer to the documentation for the
audio application that you are using. If
your application does not support input
monitoring, you will need to use the
MicroBook’s hardware-based
CueMix FX monitoring feature. Please
see chapter 7, “CueMix FX” (page 39).
Controlling monitoring latency
See chapter 7, “CueMix FX” (page 39).
