I have this weird stuff...
 
1: if i load nexus 2.2 into a new project i get the sound of the plugin all distorted and clipped, but if i load an old project containing nexus already and i play on it the sound is ok
 
2: I've installed sylenth1 32bit a time ago and worked fine, but now when i load the plugin my sonar crashes
 
 
Windows 10 64x, Sonar platinum, Fx8370, 8gb ram, focusrite 2i4 2gen

First and foremost, I believe there is a new update for the Scarlett 2cnd gen's. It came out last week.
https://global.focusrite.com/downloads?product=Scarlett+2i4
 
Second, what is your midi buffer rate set at ?
I would try setting it at 500 and do some tests. I would also double check something didn't go array with your Focusrite settings. Open the Focusrite soundcard window and make sure it is running in ASIO mode.

thanks for replying
 
i already have the last focusrite drivers and sonar running in focusrite asio
 
sample rate at 44.1 and buffer at 64, tried buffer at 1000 and i also get the sound clipped

Raise your ASIO buffers to 256 or 512. 64 may be too low for that synth and project

in 256 you can't play without noticing the latency and is ridiculous to have a supposedly good audio interface and not be able to play fine in real time.... and is not a solution neither because raising the buffer to 1000 still gives clipping
 
when i used mi integrated sound card with asio4all i didn't had this problem.... this simply cannot be

I run 500 here and all is fine. im not sure what you mean.
 
To the OP, did you download the Focusrite driver that came out last week ?
There has been some troubles using the old 2nd gen Focusrite driver. Install the new one.
Then power down your Scarlet for 60 seconds and check your cables to the usb port (Make certain you are plugging in to a USB 2 port and not a USB 3 port.
 
Also CJ is correct 64 is low.

Clipping?? Raising buffers will never cause clipping. Perhaps you have other issues if you are clipping.
 
FYI: on my PC, i do not notice any latency when my buffers are set to 256 when triggering soft synths.

just reinstalled the drivers (which were already the last that came last week) switched to another usb2 port  (i had it connected to a usb 3)
 
AND IS THE SAME, sound all distorted and clipped in buffer 500........... only happens with nexus!

i figured out that this clipping distortion thing happens also with zebra and all the 32 bit plugins that i have.... the 64 bit ones are working ok
