On further reflection, the problem of crackling could be a streaming issue. Direct from disk using the Kontact engine (which GPO uses) is probably the culprit to bad sound. A different buffer size on the interface might help. Faster hard drives can help as well, although there is not a consistent relationship between disk speed and performance.
Oh, I see. GPO uses Kontact streaming. But if it is a data I/O issue
such as caused by sample library resides on the boot volume then I
believe you would get MAS buffer error instead of crackled sound, no? Yes, bigger buffer size will help crackled sound problem since it
releases more CPU resources, but only when it really releases CPU.

I didn't know that GPO uses the Kontakt engine -- users of Sibelius have complained about crackling noises when using Kontakt with Sibelius. On the Sibelius list I don't think anybody has actually solved the problem, but it sounds similar.
Perhaps checking the archives (I hadn't paid attention since I don't have the newest version of Sibelius which is the one that ships with Kontakt Silver and has provision for an extra-cost upgrade to Kontakt Gold) of [EMAIL PROTECTED] might yield some hints.
