crackling on recorded clips

hello,

i've tried both my sure sm58 and my apex 435 condensor mic to record in audio. i've tried recording harmonica and a recorder but with both instruments and both mics i get this strange crackling in random parts of each clip. any ideas what might cause this?
thanks!

btw when i record in other apps, for example sound forge, i don't have this problem so it seems to be specifically with ableton.

i've learned a bit more.....when i set monitor to off, the crackling doesn't persist, when its on auto or on it persists. i've also turned off my speakers to make sure its not a feedback loop or something but the issues persists with speakers on or off, so it seems to be internal.
