Problem with distorted sound in MAX

Piotr's icon

Hello,

I'm new in MAX and I have the same problem with few of my patchers. I thought that the reason was too many gizmos objects, but I changed them to the pitchshift and it is still distorted. I have no idea what it is. Even audio examples from MAX are distorted. Anybody know what the problem is?

I attached one of my patchers.

Warm regards,
Piotr

Witaj Piotrze,
try to increase I/O Vector Size in Audio Status window. On my machine your praczer stopped dropping with iovs set to 512 samples.

Thank you for your message. Unfortunately on my machine it's still dropping :/ In previous version of this patcher I used about 40 individual gismos instead of pitchshift. I checked it on different computer IMAC where CPU usage was about 50-65% and it was dropping. When I removed a couple of gismos the sound was better. Tommorow I will check it on better computer.

For me the sound gets distorted when more than 1 video is inserted in a patch...
I changed the I/O Vector Size setting but it didn't help.
