If you have ""Appoint processor core" checked, then shut down XXHE and then start Foobar without rebooting, wouldn't this be a problem? It takes a reboot to clear "Appoint processor core". This is a long shot guess, probably not related to what you guys are experiencing.
Nope...I think.
I don't have a core appointed to XX. And if I do it....it doesn't sound any different to me...!
I had an hour with 9D today. No clicks here. 9m-1 far less. 9p quite some. Foobar stopped clicking after a reboot.
Sorry things run a little fast to make fast conclusions, I think.
Enjoy and cheers

Hi Gerner,
Not to talk problems out of the way ... I seriously think your 4 core (!) system cannot be judged anyway ... that is including the, say, fact that you don't hear a difference between do / do not tick the Appoint Procssor Core checkbox. You will be having enough headroom to not let it make any difference. On the other hand :
If *you* tick this checkbox, you will be appointing all the processes to one core (the 1st) and the 3rd and 4th would be doing nothing. For your system this would theoretically be worse ...
So a 4 core system is to be tuned differently, and which would be more difficult (I should evenly divide tasks between 3 cores, except for Engine#3 to be run at the 4th on its own).
So, in your case IMO it would be better to not tick the checkbox ...
NOTE : ... which would IMO not be the explanation of *you* having problems now. So I say it again : something is going on ... but not on my system.
Mind you, during playback I let XXHighEnd search / arrange for albums, taking the full 100% of the 1st core for 90 seconds or so. Although it may influence sound because of the second core taking a few % of it (due to drivers which can't be appointed), I do not hear it, let alone crackling appears.
... which STILL does not mean nothing is the matter ...
