Hello, I recently bought SubLab the other day and I’m noticing pop & crackling on every sample I select and that I’m having to switch back/forth buffer engine in order for it to work.
I’m using the latest version of Pro Tools 2022 on a MacOS Catalina 10.15.7.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hey @TerryLemonsMadeThis sorry to hear about this!
We’re trying to get to the bottom of it, please bear with us.
When you record SubLab and then listen on playback, do you hear clicks in the recording?
Could you try turning on/off the following settings to see if it makes any difference?
Please let me know,
Julia
Thank you.I don’t have FL Studio but I see it the Mode is ON.
Did all of the following and got this:

Hi there - jumping on the train here, I’ve got clicking going on too. For me, clicks don’t happen on the first note, or on repeat notes if you wait for the previous note release to complete. Just on new notes that play before the previous note has finished, as if it’s cutting the previous note at a point in the phase cycle that’s not at a zero crossing (like a bad edit in a DAW).
Great sounding product, looking forward to being able to avoid the time-consuming workarounds 
Redid all and got cracklings when drag/dropped sample. I will go back to my old way of making 808’s. This plug-in is not recommended for Pro Tools 2022 users. Lost around $75??? The plug-in plus purchased all the folders playing around lost time. Time to move on.

Hi @TerryLemonsMadeThis we’re sorry for the inconvenience - we’re working on a fix right now. We can let you know when a beta is ready with the fix or we can go ahead an issue you a refund now, whatever you prefer. You can send me a DM if you’d like a refund.
I come up with a workaround using Pro Tools:
Open SubLab and click on the little red box in upper right to keep plug-in from closing when using other plug-ins.
Click on HW Buffer selecting 512, close out. Open HW Buffer select 1024, close.
At this point it will work properly without closing SubLab, so keep it open.
Once you get the 808 sound you want bounce to audio…

I was on Catalina last week, now on Monterey, same issue in both cases so perhaps it’s not an OS thing.
Still getting cracks/pops and freeze ups with the little workaround. A bit annoying to this point. Again, not recommended for Pro Tools 2022 users.
I’m also getting crackling and popping noises when using SubLab XL, presets or otherwise. Below are all relevant specs pulled from SubLab XL.
I’ve also tried the 1.0.4 Beta update with no luck.

When you say clicks and pops, are we talking about crackles while SubLab XL is playing a note?
It would be super useful if you can take a video of the issue as if I can see/hear what is happening I’ll more than likely be able to investigate in the right direction!
Thanks,
Gavin.
