Crackle during record or playback:
• Increase the number and size of buffers in the ‘Settings’ dialog or in the application.
• Try different cables (coaxial or optical) to rule out any defects here.
• Check that cables/devices have not been connected in a closed loop. If so, set the card’s
clock mode to ‘Master’.
• Increase the buffer size of the hard disk cache.
32 kHz files will not play back:
• Hammerfall does not have an internal 32 kHz clock, as this frequency is not covered by
the ADAT standard. However, you can record and playback via S/PDIF if the card is clocked
from an external device i.e. AutoSync or Word Clock are active, and fed S/PDIF or
equivalent word clock signal is 32 kHz.
