I'm recording something off of Mozilla Firefox, which I can't exactly assign
to the MOTU unless the MOTU is the default soundcard in Windows. I'm not
sure if there's a way to make application specific assignments to sound
devices within the Control Panel. And if there is, I'm not sure why
Microsoft hasn't shown that yet, just the "Default Soundcard" assignment.

Just curious, why are you recording through the built-in Realtech, and not
your MOTU interface?

You really should have JAWS running through your built-in sound card, not
through the audio interface. Most JAWS synths run at a low sample rate of
22KHZ or 32KHZ if you?re lucky, and the drivers sometimes get locked up
trying to work things about on multiple sample rates with different streams.
Some drivers are good at upscaling and dealing with it that way, others not
so much.

What about the problem of JAWS suddenly dropping out and freezing during
recording or playback? How do I fix that? I have JAWS running through the
headphones in my MOTU.

DPC stands for deferred procedure calls, it is how Windows handles
interrupts and calls to the kernel and driver subsystem. Since Windows is
not a real time OS, it has to schedule these calls to handle access to
resources. Having a high latency between calls for the audio driver will
result in dropped packets or extra buffering by the drivers into memory,
resulting in pops and crackles and eventually drop outs.
It?s more complex than that, but I?m just giving you the simple basic
definition.
You may have a tool called DPC latency checker on your DAW, or you can
google/download it. It will allow you to check your system?s current DPC
latency. FYI, this tool is not accessible with JAWS, you?ll have to use the
JAWS cursor to read its output, or have a sighted person do it for you.

OK. You may be experiencing hardware issues, or your NVRAM was reset and
your firmware settings lost, thus you machine could be experiencing high DPC
latency. Can you check your current DPC latency?

Yes, via a factory image that was custom built for me when I purchased the
machine.

You probably need Windows reinstalled

It started happening in 2015, the moment I started updating Windows! Until
that day, I was able to record flawlessly with any devices I have. Which is
why I'm now going to run Windows without updates, since updating just messes
everything up and breaks compatibility with JAWS.

Have you always been able to record like this? Did this start happening
recently? Or has it been doing this for a while?

If by DAW you mean my computer, I've had it since September 2, 2011. The
graphics card I have is the AMD ATI Radeon HD5400 series, though I'm not
sure of the exact model. I also have the Intel HD Graphics 3000. One of
those two is my graphics card, and the other is my video card, which I think
also has audio features. I also have the Realtek High Definition Audio
soundcard built in to the machine.

Hi, it's Annabelle.
When I'm either recording or playing audio within Sonar, JAWS sometimes
seems to fall asleep. Could it be that focus is lost? Why is the Focus Loss
Announcement turned off by default? How do I prevent this from happening?
Also, what can I do to prevent dropouts and stuttering, clicks and pops when
recording from my computer's internal soundcard into the MOTU 896HD?
