Windows 10: Presonus Studio 26C audio interface compatibility issue on Windows 10

Good day,


I'm using a Presonus 26C Audio Interface and Presonus Studio One as my Digital Audio Workstation DAW. When I try to run the audio interface using the Windows Audio drivers, it runs fine. However, when I try to run the audio interface using the native drivers provided by Presonus performance is severely compromised. The audio becomes extremely distorted and artifacts pop up.


I've tried reinstalling Windows 10 but to no avail. I've tried to run a Focusrite 2i2 2nd Gen audio interface but it gives the exact same problem; it runs on Windows Audio drivers, but it won't run on its native drivers. I've also tried to run on of my projects on a different Windows 10 system but it gives the exact same problem on that system as well being unable to use my audio interfaces using its native drivers. Even after a Win10 reinstall.


Now I need to run my audio interface on its native drivers because on Windows Audio drivers there's an enormous latency issue which makes using input devices like my keyboard unusable.


Now I've read on the internet that since a Windows 10 update there have been users complaining about compatibility issues with their audio interfaces.


Does somebody know a solution to this?


Thanks.

:)

 

Audio Interrupt - Windows 10 with Studio One and Behringer USB interface

I recently bought a new PC with Windows 10, installed my studio software (Presonus Studio 1 Artist) and added a new USB interface (Behringer UMC22) using standard Windows USB Audio driver. I now encounter numerous times per hour a hard audio interrupt for
whatever is processing within Studio 1; whether playback or recording new audio, I get momentary interrupts of all processes which causes gaps and loss of captured audio. Task Manager shows that during this time, Antimalware Services Executable is showing
a very slight uptick in CPU, not near like all of the other posts I have seen here regarding ASE. No other tasks in Task Manager show any change is status during these interrupts. I do not encounter any such interrupts during playback of Windows Media Player
or iTunes. I have searched Presonus' forums, Behringer and general pro audio forums with no specific hits on my problem. Any ideas for a remedy would be greatly appreciated! system details:

Studio One Artist – 4.5.4.54067 x64

High DPC Latency with System Audio Through Audio Interface.

All of my system audio is running through the Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 USB 2.0 audio interface.

While running PreSonus Studio One v3.5 (Digital Audio Workstation software), and while playing back an existing mix, the audio plays back at a slow, fluctuating rate. At best the audio is playing at 90% normal speed with a high amount of popping and crackling.
At worst, that audio is playing around 50% normal speed with an extreme amount of digital artifacting, and the audio sounds smeared and unlistenable. The CPU performance meter in Studio One reports an overload state, while the Windows Task Manager reports
only 14% CPU usage. Studio One also reports the latency from my interface as 42.7 ms. There was nothing else running, aside from the normal background processes from other applications I have installed, at the time of the test.

Outside of Studio One, other system audio from web browsers and games exhibits pops and cracks to a lesser degree, but are still significant. However there is no fluctuation of playback speed, in this case.

LatencyMon reports that USBPORT.SYS, ndis.sys, nvldddmkm.sys, and dxgkrnl.sys all exhibit overly long execution times (these are the top four listed in the Drivers tab, sorted by highest execution time). USBPORT.SYS had a maximum execution time of 17648.650833
µs.

Here's is the link to my Windows Performance Recorder results. I followed the instructions in the appropriate Wiki on this.

Hope you all can help me out! Go Internet!

 

Audio Issues and Windows 10

Hi,

Welcome to Microsoft Community. I understand the inconvenience you are facing. I will certainly help you with this.

According to the issue description, the issue is related to audio recording. I suggest you to try troubleshooting recording audio and check if it helps:

I suggest you to run the Recording Audio
troubleshooter and check if it helps.

• Type troubleshooting in the search bar.
• Select Troubleshooting.
• Select View all on the top left corner.
• Click on Recording Audio.
• Follow the on-screen instructions to run the troubleshooter.
• Check if issue persists.

If issue persist, try installing audio driver in compatibility mode. Compatibility mode runs the program using settings from a previous version of Windows. Follow these steps to install the drivers in compatibility mode and check if that helps.

• Download the audio driver from the manufacturer’s website.
• Right-click on the driver setup file and click on ‘Properties’.
• Click on the ‘Compatibility’ tab and check the box
  ‘Run this program in compatibility mode for’ and select Windows 8/8.1 operating system from the drop down menu and proceed with the installation. Once this is done, restart the computer and check if the issue persists.

Hope this information helps. Please post back with the results, we will be glad to assist you further.
