Hello, is it anyone here ( or on this planet ) that can help with this issue on Catalina Mac OS 10.15.5 Beta 3 (19F72f).

I am using MacBook Pro 16 inches. 😟

I would like to know as well. I noticed the cracking sound when watching a concert on Youtube yesterday. I thought it was a recording problem. I then chose another concert, it was the same. Very annoying!

Catalina has a big issue with CoreAudio this time or I don't know exactly what it is. But if you are not producing music like me switch it to 48 kHz. I think it can help but is not fix the problem. Over 6 months Catalina is still stuck with this sound issue, especially people like me with brand new MCP16 inches.

P.S. I have seen this problem with cracking and popping sound from EL CAPITAN. Every new MAC OS has this problem I don't know what is wrong, hardware, or OS but absolutely every time when the new OS is come out this problem is like some that are created to be like that, always. 😟 But this time it looks very long time to be fixed and there is no solution at the moment.

I am sorry to hear that 10.15.5 19F83c did not fix your issue. It did for me.

I *really* want to see the flow of audio in macOS, and the changes in gain/amplitude along the way.

If I use the test osc plugin in Logic Pro X, running thru a specific CoreAudio driver, I can succesfully manage keeping a consistent gain structure all the way thru my mixer, using Apple supplied Class-Compliant driver. 0db sine wave is exactly that all the way thru. Easy enough. If I go over that, I hear distortion.Now... safe to say that's calibrated, but... if I use the Music app, or audio coming from Safari, signal is about 4.5db hotter. That simply *cannot* be right. Send that to internal speakers and of course they're cracking and popping.

I already spoke with Apple because I want back my money because this is ridiculous. Super expensive computer with this problem. I've made one Video for youtube 33 min and share all problems with 16-inch pro and Catalina and 265 people around the world contacted me with the same issue. Apple DONT CARE ABOUT THE SOUND and we never gonna see perfectly work machine with this I am 110% sure. Sad but true. 0 comments 2 Copy to clipboard Share this post Copied to Clipboard Load more Add comment BNJVisuals OP Jul ’20 Obviously the problem isn't fixed yet by Apple...I have bought a Mac Pro (Early 2009) now running macOS 10.14.6 (18G5033) and added RAM and Graphic card to suit my needs.Then I realized that using Safari (100% of the time), or Spotify (85% of the time) the audio will crackle and pop every seconds creating a distortion. I am super disappointed that this problem is seen by hundreds of people and still isn't heard / listened too.At least I can use Chrome and the sound is perfect.. Can you explain wt* does this means? Apple?....I guess not. Deep problems in the Core Audio Kernel of Mojave and Catalina in my opinion...Just because you know, Apple...They want you to buy the LATEST all the time and upgrade to the latest software all the time.I hope we will see an engineer create a revolution and releasing publicly the fix XD (Maybe even a movie hahah):/ 1 comments 0 Copy to clipboard Share this post Copied to Clipboard Load more Add comment mikaoelitiana1 OP Jul ’20 I also have the same issue and I have updated to 10.15.5.

Unfortunately my MAC was set on automatic updates now I literally can’t work it’s embarrassing. Not only can I not use any of my paid plugins, but I also can’t seem to record without logic or Fl studio crashing even without any plug ins! What am I supposed to tell my clients? Apple needs to fix this ASAP 0 comments 2 Copy to clipboard Share this post Copied to Clipboard Load more Add comment SMKH OP Oct ’20 Hello I am still having this issue, i am so surprised why haven't apple fixed this ? I am facing Crackling from speaker but only when i open simulator, My macbook is new i bought this 75 days ago and yet facing so many problems like this i am disappointed in Apple. I am using updated OS: MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019) MACOS 10.15.7I have been searching alot couldn't find any solution to this. I am developing an App that is based on Videos, such as a video editing App but i am unable to test the application because of the crackling sound whenever i play audio when simulator is opened it makes crackling noise . 2 comments 7 Copy to clipboard Share this post Copied to Clipboard Load more Add comment eliezercazares OP Oct ’20 It just happened to me on Catalina 10.15.7, MB Pro 16.
