Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 sound distortion

[alexlove99]

Hi,

I bought a Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 a few days ago for recording but also for music listening.
It is working fine on my hackintosh but if I stress the CPU too much (100 %) the sound gets distorted and after a few seconds it stops completely.
I can reproduce the problem by running Prime95 with In-Place Large FFTs.
Is there a way to fix that issue? Maybe with a PCI USB 2.0 card?

it‘s because of ur CPU Overload - look at the buffer size in ur session-setup ...

 

[Basically]

did u solve it? I have the same prob but without cpu overload
!

did you install all current drivers for the scarlett interface?

 

[alexlove99]

How would you install drivers for a Core Audio compliant device?
There aren't any available.

I don't remember how I fixed the issue back then and don't even own the same system anymore.

Same issue here with Scarlett 18i20. Any solution?
