Weird distortion problem drives me mad
Hello everyone,
i'm new here and hope to find some help in this community, because i wasn't able to find a solution for my problem so far.
I use Reaper for some months now and i've installed various 3rd party VSTs without any problems. I have different unfinished projects, which i could open and close and reopen at any time with no issues, everything was playing fine until some days ago.
I wanted to try out Waves Studiorack plugin. After some trial and error i was able to load it in Reaper, but i couldn't get it to work. So i deleted everything i could find related to this plugin and did a VST-rescan in Reaper.
Unfortunately all my sounds are distorted now. No matter what project i load, even on lowest volume everything sounds like crap. If i start a new project and add a single instrument, e.g. synthesizer bassline, it's distorted without any FX.
I reinstalled Reaper, but the problem remains.
This is my setup:
Macbook Pro Retina 13", 2015
OS High Sierra 10.13.6
8GB Ram
Reaper 6.02/64 rev 992e2b
Sample rate 48 KHz (in program prefs and in project prefs)
Media buffer size 1200 ms
"Anticipate FX processing" and "Allow live FX multiprocessing on 4 CPUs" is checked.
I have absolutely no idea what the problem is and what i can do about it.
Can anyone help me to figure this out?
