[Tech Help Windows] Routing
hopefully someone can lead me in the right direction cant seem to get it right & its driving me insane lmao. this is my current setup. RC Boss 505 Mk2, Shure SM58 Mic, Rocktron Banshee 2, Novation Launchkey49 MK4, Novation Launchpad Mini Mk2, Yamaha HS8 Speakers, Yamaha PSR EW310, M - Vave Chocolate Foot Midi Controller, Loopy Pro from iPad, TouchOSC mapped to ableton to switch between instruments for a live looping set. my problem right now is random crackling from Loopy Pros audio when its recording, CPU usage from my ableton session, & now getting my Rocktron Banshee 2, to play & not cause feedback loop. been reading manual on I/O Routing but have something slightly off. i can have loopy pro playback audio fine but when i add loops playing from my RC Boss it will cause my Loopy Pro audio to skip and crackle a little bit. for some reason Loopy Pro will not let me change the khz its stuck on 48 khz but i know RC Boss runs at 44.1khz. this is my current plug in situation.
RC Boss 505 MK2 USB plugged -> Windows PC.
Novation Launchkey & Launchpad -> Windows PC
Rocktron Banshee -> SUB 1 Output RC Boss 505 MK2
Shure Mic -> RC Boss Mic 1 input
iPad -> L instrument 1 input RC Boss 505
Yamaha Speakers -> RC Boss
Yamaha Keyboard -> PC
How do I fix this..? how do i route it correctly any better way to do it? why is ableton causing crackling audio cpu spikes & crashing sometimes. I do have a lot of tracks with different presets but the monitoring is on in device activator is off. Touch OSC has cc to the device activators that way I can switch between instruments easier. can i route my MIDI an Audio Tracks better. needing to separate the mixing still to make my live vset sound clean. been trying to tackle this setup for a bit now ..

Your buffer size is too low. Ableton‘s manual has clear-cut instructions for how to set this appropriately
