Do you have another interface or soundcard you can try? Your V-S could be crapp!ng out.
FWIW I had a similar problem that turned out to be my Novation keyboard sending erroneous pitch bend messages. I would have sworn in court that I had eliminated it as the problem during troubleshooting. Took me weeks to come back around to it, but when I disconnected it and left out
again the problem was gone. So...
Make sure that the input on midi tracks that are complete is set to an
unused port / channel (not
none).
