Problems with external samples and external synth

Just a quick note: I’ve taken the liberty of formatting your code blocks :slight_smile:
To do this, there’s no need to use block quotes. You can place three back ticks ``` on a line before and after your code, and it highlights the code nicely :slight_smile:

With your above example, did you mean to write at live_loop ? this is most likely not want you want.

Also, not necessarily related to the sound saturation you’re experiencing, but I’d avoid using sync inside a live_loop unless you really need to. If you are just trying to make sure that the samples happen every 4 beats but stay in time with other live_loops as well, then I’d remove the syncs inside the loops and use the other alternative: live_loop :kettle, sync: :tick do … much more information about that elsewhere on the forum though - here’s a few pages:

You mention the problem still persists in the above examples - how long are those samples exactly?
