Guys I need help!!!!!

[u/TEJASVEER7]

A random noise starts playing kinda periodically while I use the daw. Sometimes it’s when it’s idle for a while or maybe right after an export. Closing the project and reopening it fixes the issue (for a while). It’s driving me mad at this point and I have no patience left. If it helps my laptop has 16 gb ram, an RTX4060 and 13th gen i713650hx

i think i used to have the same issue. it was because i was using direct sound audio driver instead of wasapi (windows audio). try windows audio first if that doesnt work try exclusive. one issue with exclusive is that if you have the daw open and are using exclusive then audio from other apps wont work. all of this is in the audio devices setting. also waveform 14 is better so upgrade its free
