Brand new KRK Rokits crackling in playback, Logic Pro X
Hi, I tried googling this, but every answer I'm reading is over my head. Buffer Size is something people advise changing. But for reference, I don't know what a buffer is nor do I know how to find my buffer settings. Someone else said to watch your CPU/HD meter, and I again don't know what those are, nor how to change them. Any help would be great, feel free to assume I don't know anything about the technical sides of recording.
Buffer test exaplained
As a test, unplug one of the cables going into a speaker and connect the cable to a line input on your interface. Then record 30 seconds or so on that input channel while playing back a sample where you can hear crackling in the remaining speaker. Put an MP3 copy of that recording on this site using the "Upload a file" button at the bottom right in the reply box. When we get to have a look at it, we should be able to tell you whether it's a buffer problem or something else.

Computer used? Operating system? Interface manufacturer and model?
My apologies. I did not read the thread title carefully (pre-coffee) before responding...
I hope some of the other replies help solve your issue.
First you need to eliminate if it's the computer or the monitors
If it's not the computer, I read that some monitors could need some break in.. Run a signal at medium level for a while and see if the cracking stops..
