Strange Distortion

  1. Click here. This is a solo piano demo from the True Keys Library, which I got off Soundcloud.

  2. By “playing audio through the internet”, I mean streaming audio from internet sites like Youtube, Soundcloud, or Payplay. The built in speakers on my computer suck, and a lot of times I need to use Youtube or whatever to practice for live performances. I have switched Windows sounds off in my Control Panel.

All of the levels are reasonable: the DSP mixer faders are all at the default, the monitor volume is reasonable, and so is the volume of my computer’s output. No distortion happens with my computer’s internal soundcard. So I’m starting to wonder if there is a problem with something inside the unit, but why wouldn’t this happen while using Cubase…?
