Solved Crackle in Massive's Reverb

    When using reverb (any amount of Dry/Wet) my three oscillators (sawtooth wave, square wave, and sine wave) get a crackling sound. My sample rate is as high as my ASIO4All drivers will let me go, my CPU is a Ryzen 1800X so it should definitely not be a power issue, and I don't have any other settings like white noise turned on.
    If I had to think of any reason possible, could it be because I need even better ASIO drivers that aren't the 4All version (that I use because I don't have an audio interface)?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I seem to be out of options for pinpointing the issue.

    ASIO4ALL is not really a true ASIO driver, it's a wrapper for WDM audio subsystem into ASIO. So yeah it doesn't always perform best.

    You should probably get a proper audio interface.

    Thank you for your reply! The issue fixed itself upon restart (though the same settings were being used), however I kept the thread open to confirm if ASIO4ALL could lead to problems, and you addressed that.
