Go to the Edit menu > Preferences to the the Engine Tab and change the playback setting from Disk to RAM. The more RAM available to Phrazer, the more loop tracks you will be able to play back simultaneously. The only limit to how much RAM you can allocate to Phrazer is the amount available on the computer less the amount used by any other open application and the Operating System. <br \/>Distorted audio may also be the result of incorrect Engine settings such as the Sample Rate or CPU Percentage. Also, if you are using audio other than SoundManager, as would<br \/>be the case with a third party sound card, settings of less than 16 bit, 44.1 or insufficient headroom can also cause distortion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[1],"tags":[34716],"storecat":[],"itemids":[27322],"manufacturers":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Check out the My sound is distorted, how can I fix this? page at Sweetwater \u2014 the world&#039;s leading music technology and instrument retailer!\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/articles\/sound-distorted-fix\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"My sound is distorted, how can I fix this? - SweetCare\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Distorted sound is usually an indication of either an incorrect setting with the audio output, or a data bandwidth issue.
