Unfortunately I changed my Dell on this top-of-the-line Microsoft Surface Pro (i7, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD), and I ended up not being able to play RS2014 at all. First, I got a lot of crackling. After reducing the mic sensitivy on Windows to 50%, it got better. But when I plug in the RS 2014 original cable to the USB 3.0 port, the sound gets absolutely awful and one cannot hear a guitar or a bass plugged in. I searched on the net for a sollution, but found none. Please, let me know if you find something!
