When Reaper is the active window on my computer, my speakers make this weird high pitched crackly whiny sound. If Reaper is open, but I'm using Notepad say, then it stops. Is there any way I can prevent this? It's quiet enough to work with, so I have been ignoring it but it occurred to me today that there might well be a solution. I have an Edirol UA1-EX which they are plugged into, which is plugged into my computer. It's a shitty little cheap interface thing that I got so my computer could do ASIO. Could that be the problem?

Any ideas?

couldnt your computer do asio anyway with the asio4all driver?

I don't know man. I got a midi controller and they told me that that's what I'd need to play it without huge lag. Maybe they shafted me. Now I don't even have the controller, but I like it because it allows me to plug both my monitors and my regular listening speakers into my computer, all simultaneous like and in a hassle free fashion.

oh...well i use the driver (which works pretty nicely) and my guess is that youre right about it having to do with Asio, I don't know what it could be...maybe something is feeding back from the output to input or something and giving you an ugly sound, just a wild guess

not trying to fob you off, but try the reaper forums, really helpful there on reaper stuff
