Hello,
I am not sure what happened, but I took a Crew Chief update 2 versions ago and since ever it is not doing the sound check at the beginning when I start the application. I have uninstalled CC, and the associated Microsoft patches. It just gives garble at the beginning. I have checked that my headphones are setup as default devices, which they are. Thoughts?
