fl studio, i'm trying to make some music, i made a few tracks but, with much hindrance

The most likely cause of clicks and pops is buffer underruns.

If you are using the onboard audio for any part of the process you won't get good results.

You would need an external sound card connected by USB or Firewire. Firewire is generally superior for live applications because of its low latency.

Try Reaper too. It has a free trial and even then the demo is only nagware.

As an aside, I make music using fl too. You can still buy some of it at from the bargain bucket at HMV:

Do you have a link to any of your tracks?

Fancy sharing your links?

I used to have terrible underrun problems on my PC when running FL and had to export to mp3 just to hear what I was doing at times. Mind you, my PC was about 8 years old lol
