Title: Midi note delay of about 1/32 when recording using any DAW, after Avast update.
Post by: REDACTED on May 08, 2017, 05:02:05 PM: Hi

Using Avast free. Recently Avast fixed an issue (after an Avast update) that stopped Reaper DAW from starting the playhead. Since then, I find that my midi (notes) and audio (samples) are recording about 1/32 too early. I know that Avast is causing the issue as I tested the same DAW on my laptop which worked perfectly until Avast on that machine updated itself. I even uninstalled Avast and used the uninstall tool but the problem still persists. Please Avast, can you look into it. Thank you.

At the time that this issue started happening there was a known Avast bug that stopped the playhead from starting. See: http://forum.cockos.com/showpost.php?p=1841087&postcount=21 (http://forum.cockos.com/showpost.php?p=1841087&postcount=21)

As I said my laptop was fine until Avast updated itself...
