Hello all,
I have installed NI Battery and have been playing with it
in Cubase SX3.
I am getting clicks and clipping on the main bus.
I clicks when it triggers a sample.
It doesn't always clip the main bus, but it clicks all the time.
A limiter or volume adustment fixes the clipping, but I can not figure out
how to get rid of the clicks.
Please advise.

Thanks,
Brandon

What version of Battery?

If it's not the latest version, get the latest. Early versions had all
sorts of problems. The latest isn't perfect but is much more usable.

Second, adjust the buffer size in your sequencer. Maybe you need a
higher buffer?

Third, try with or without DFD (Direct From Disk) in options.

Off the top of my head...hope that helps.

Cheers,
-Jamie

It's more than likely the buffer thing - I had that very disk
that Brandon installed Battery from & never had a problem with
it working properly in SX on WinXP. Or it could be a RAM issue -
insufficient RAM when running VSTi's can definitely cause wierd
shit to happen to the samples.

What is the version Neil I forget?

I have 2gigs of ram with an AMD2+gig processor.

That should be enough right?

Where do I adjust the Buffer size?

Thanks,
b

It was version 1, wasn't it? And yeah, 2 gigs of RAM should be
plenty... I was running it on 1 Gig - try either the buffer
settings in Cubase (the recording settings in your device setup
menu), or in the driver for whatever interface youre using.

Yeah, try the buffer stuff first.

But I strongly recommend upgrading to the latest version. V1 caused all
kinds of problems here. I'm running on OSX though, which may have been a
factor at that time depending on how they were writing the core code
back then. But judging from the forum traffic at the time, a lot of
people were having problems with V1 and I don't think it was just on OSX.

Anyway, aside from being more solid, the new version has some very
worthwhile enhancements.

Cheers,

If you're on v1, you can try this: configure Battery for more outputs, say 2
stereo and 2 mono. Kicks were the big problem for me, so I started sending
it out it's own dedicated output and no more problems.
