I found the source of my crackling, static audio

[haddockd]

@haddockd did the stattic happens more fast when you are running the game with Framelimit OFF? (100+ FPS)

Yes

Certainly has a limit of time/FPS or something, since when you, @haddockd, was testing without overclock, the static took a longer time to appear, right?

Sort of. Sometimes it did but I was able to successfully get it to give me static at the 1.5 hour mark more than once with no overclock.

The only time I was unable to get static was when I played games that weren't full speed (and this may just be because it takes significantly longer to get there due to the slower speed).

If you hard code the FPS (limit by FPS) I am still able to repro the static, so I am unsure of the too fast hypothesis.

I get the static in literally all the games I play (GC and Wii) (Zelda ucode or not).

I confirm the same strange sound glitch here what haddockd talking about.

You start to play with perfect clear sound but after ~1h20m - 1h40m of playing static appears. Here is two records - clear one and static one.
Clear: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?f2m8kfvf9smfz7e
Static: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?egli91xyzz6nafh
It's from RE4Wii NTSC on Dolphin 3.5-1335 x64. I did the same things in game while recording, that's why there is two files - before and after static appear.
Main settings: Dual core - on, Idle skip - on, DSP HLE, DSP on thread- off, framelimit - Audio, OpenGL graphics, v-sync - on.

O yes, last but not least! Soon after the appearance of audio glitch my fps goes down as if the sound is switched from HLE to LLE.

PS sorry for my english.

Thanks for that. I already established at least 5 others having this exact same issue with different backends. The issue is that the devs cant seem to repro it. Hopefully someone has a suggestion

[haddockd]

Actually re-reading the latest posts, There may be other issues here because mine does not lose performance once the static occurs. Also, as I mentioned before I do not get this issue with HLE (at least not in any of the games I have played). Keep in mind this is using 3.5 because all the games I have been playing recently have been Zelda ucode games and the AX merge does not affect them. I lean towards compatibility and accuracy

I also have this problem
