I discovered the same problem in the past and reinstalling all software ( Sonarworks/UAD/Win Updates/Bios and connecting the Apollo to a different USB port was the solution last time. But I am on it for days now and can't find any solution. I am getting pops and clicks like every few seconds it's not usable in this way the check my tracks

Anyone got some ideas?

Hi Tim, thanks for the post!

I've checked your support ticket history, and I can't find anything. Did you manage to resolve the issue? Here are a couple of ways to proceed:
- The issue is discussed in-depth in this Community thread, check it out for some more context: Unbearable crackling sound every 5 minutes when using Systemwide 4!
- Try both output modes in Reference 4 Systemwide (the alternative driver type is likely to work better): ASIO/WASAPI output modes in Reference 4 Systemwide [WIN]
- Try various sample rate and buffer size settings - it is often the case that the problem is specific to a certain setting
- Try increasing the Safety buffer: Safety buffer in Reference 4 Systemwide
Let us know if these suggestions help, and please submit a support request if the issue persists!

The problem seemed to be an faulty uninstallation of Sonarworks Reference App. I had that before and when bouncing Audio in the DAW, while the Reference Plugin was enabled, I didn't get the message to turn it of when bouncing Audio, like it normally pops up. So I cleaned my system with Revo Uninstaller and manually deleted all the files in Windows and in the registry. After that I was able to make a clean install and now it has been working without a problem.
