I recorded a podcast in Audition for the first time on my new Macbook Pro. I heard two hits while playing back. It sounds like a 3 second dropout followed immediately by a voltage spike that sounds like 48v turning back on. On a 1 1/2 hr timeline, it happens once around the 17th min mark and a second time at around the 50th min mark.

I have heard about an issue with kernals and the clock sync causing an issue with Logic Pro users, does anyone know if this is the same issue?

I am also not ruling out that its possibly the Behringer mixer as I had a vaguely similar pop on a recording from the PC side. That one did not have a drop out but the pop sounded similar. Anyone have any ideas?

A sample of one of the dropouts is linked. I'll provide some info down below, let me know if anyone needs more info.

Thanks for the help!

There is a thread on this. See https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/audio-interface-issues-with-2018-macbook-pro.2159141/

I can say I have not experienced the problem in either of setups. My deskside chain is SM7B, DBX 286s, OnyxBlack, USB A-USB C adapter, Mac. My VO booth chain is Senn 416, DBX 286s, Audient ID14, USB A-USB C adapter, Mac.

In both cases, Audition is my DAW. Recording Audio file (not multi-track) at 44,100, 24 bit, mono.

My MBP is 2018, 15", 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, 560 GPU.
