Clipping in Massive

Post by drake6 » Thu May 09, 2013 9:43 pm

Im getting a lot of clipping in massive when I try to create pads and basses. It's showing my CPU usage at about 10-15 % so I'm not sure what it could be. My system is Core i7 920 @ 2.67HGz and 6 GB Ram. Any ideas? Im also running through FL studio 10.

clipping as in sharp sounds ? hm sometimes you might have to bring the attack away from zero so it fades in a bit and maybe add a short release in the env 4 or which one it is by standart

Hint: get Sylenth1.

Turn the volume as high as you want. It doesn't clip. No matter what.

Stop jocking sylenth ffs. With 32 bit float signal paths in most DAWs, a lack of clipping isn't exactly a miraculous feat of engineering. It's probably your audio buffer. Does it do it on multiple patches? Could it be something else in the effects chain? If it's isolated to that patch, take a screenshot and post it here.


If you're using a patch with a square wave into a clipper insert, I'm gonna hurt you in the face.

Are you using an ASIO driver for your sound card, or you using your primary drivers? My DAW "clips" all the time when I don't let my audio interface take some of the burden.

Yeah this sounds like buffer dropouts more than clipping.

I clip Massive deliberately for more distortion but I've never had clicking noises
