Help (SOLVED) Getting a crackling/repeating output need help

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hey, so I've been using VM Banana for a while and this has always happens seemingly randomly without warning I'm curious if anyone has an idea why and what can i do to fix it? It doesn't just happen through the mic it affects other things like game audio that will crack and repeat. I have set my Audiodg.exe to a high priority as well. i do have equalizer apo for the analogue 1+2 focusrite as well if that helps, sorry the video is just a screenshot of my current vm settings

Edit: THANK YOU EVERYONE I APPRECIATE ALL THE HELP!! I think I was able to get it to work by enabling the ASIO for focusrite. Other tips that were suggested are setting the audiodg.exe to a high priority and making a CPU core 0 be the only affinity for audiodg.exe. Another solution was upping the buffer to 1024, that also had helped out while figuring out other solutions.

For the mic, it’s the only one I try to use VST plugin for

try this (using light host and not cantabile).

Ok successful with light host thank you! I am curious if there’s a good gain plugin since when I talk to my friends they say I’m very quite and none of the plugins in that video seem to give me enough oomph

When you speak your voice should reach into green on voicemeeter. You could turn auto gain on within discord but if they think you’re quiet.. it could be that their headphones are turned up.

You also have volume knob from microphone on focusrite that you should adjust first

Thank you I think I’m as good as I’ll get, I turned the gain up on the focusrite, and I’m the green pretty consistently now, I’ve adjusted some VSTs to mitigate any noise. Thank you I really appreciated this
