USB audio cut outs. (driving me nuts!!)

Ant Music

Hi guys. When I play tunes on my Laptop (connected to the Axe Fx 2) I am getting audio dropouts (playback pausing momentarily and resuming) which sounds like a buffering issue.
My patch is only at 73% so I doubt that high CPU is having any effect.

The USB meter is jumping around a bit when this is happening and I don't know how to stop it from doing this. Grrrrr

Any help is appreciated.
 
For clarification, when you play without the connection to your laptop you don't get the same results, using the same patch? Can you share your setup details (FW version, laptop type, OS, ...), which may help to diagnose a root cause? Also, are you connected to Axe Edit or a DAW while this is occurring? Have you tried a different USB cable, if for nothing else, but to rule that out? Hopefully the fix will be soon. Cheers, Lee
 
Might be a long shot, but some laptops have WiFi hardware that can cause heavy CPU spikes and audio lag. Try disabling your WiFi adapter and see if that helps.
