I’ve been using Reaper, with a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 interface and AKG P 170 mic, for about a year. I use the rig mainly to critique my own fingerstyle work, and have also made a couple of multitrack backings for a singer friend. Everything was great until a few days ago when I laid down a simple track, and the playback sounded horrible! Tinny, distorted, almost unrecognizable. I checked and ALL of my previous Reaper projects had the same problem, although the .wav files I had created from them still sounded OK. Reaper Help was no help and the only suggestion from the users forum was rebooting Reaper, which did not work.

Any thoughts? I’m stumped.
