Inexplicable audio dropouts/popping sounds only in Gig Performer 4

After reading your question about other devices running audio software @pianopaul, it gave me the idea to try disabling the Focusrite speakers as a windows playback device.

This is always a good idea as allowing Windows to use your audio device for system sounds at the same time you’re playing is really NEVER a good idea for many reasons, including device overloading which you most likely experienced because Windows used your audio interface.

I went as far as to disable the device from that control panel entirely. It seems to be much more stable now, thankfully.

Can you confirm that this fixed the problem?

Yes, working perfectly now, thank you!
