First of all, hello there! I'm new here.
Nice to meet you all. :D

So, I just finished composing my first music (Yay! :mrgreen: ), here goes it's link on SoundCloud:
https://soundcloud.com/user-695343040/the-beginning

If you give it a listen, you'll notce click sounds at the beginning of many notes. I don't know what caused it or how to make it go away. :(
I made the music using a few Triple Oscillators, and for the bass one kick01.ogg, a kick02.ogg and a hithat_closed01.ogg .

Here goes my specs:

OS: Ubuntu Studio 16.04.1 LTS
Kernel: 4.4.0-38-lowlatency
RAM: 4GB
LMMS: 1.1.3
Buffer size: ~3k
Audio Interface: ALSA

One last hing, I don't know if relevant, but here is my output for `lsmod | grep snd` :

snd_seq_dummy 16384 0
snd_hrtimer 16384 2
snd_hda_codec_hdmi 53248 1
snd_hda_codec_realtek 86016 1

soundcore 16384 1 snd

I'm hopefully expecting your assistance. :P
Thank you all very much.

Pay special attention at the last part, where the clicks gets more noticeable.
There is no bass at the final part.

Now I do hear what you mean.

Try to lower the attack a bit might do it.

Worked like a charm! :lol:
Thankyou so much!

Today later, when I'm off work I will apply this to all the clicking TripleOscillators, reupload and repost here as final result.
Thankyou again!

Too late, I'm on it already. >_<

Hey, sorry for the delay, here is the final version. Tweaked attack on all TripleOscillators that were causing clicks, now all clicks are gone. Also, I made a little change at the end of the track.

Here it is:

Thanks for the help. :D
