Tracking - 3 x UAD-1, LP7, clicks?

[thewitt]

Hey ALl

I just wanted to check that I'm not missing something else here.

The project I'm working on is starting to get bigger (40+ tracks) and as I'm going along I'm spitting out mixes. I love the UA plugs and just about every track gets 'something'.

But when I go back to tracking, even with bypassing all the UA plugs and setting the UAD-1 Meter to 'off', I get clicks and pops (especially when mousing around with a Mighty Mouse). Some are on the recorded tracks, some just annoying with playback.

Do I need to remove all the UA plugs when tracking? Why doesn't bypassing and/or setting them to off do the same thing?

Thanks

Sounds like you need to increase your buffers with your sound card.
Either that or reevaluate the way you work.
Like hold off using UA plugs until mix time or freeze the ones you like.
