Locking the Sample Rate in Windows XP
Locking the sample rate can be very important, since Windows will
frequently try to set the hardware to the highest supported sample rate.
Then, Windows sample rate converts between that rate and the rate at which
you are playing or recording. For instance, you may be trying to play at 44.1
kHz, but Windows sets the hardware to 96 kHz and converts between the
two. This is undesirable because you may be trying to do a digital transfer at
a specific rate. In addition, sample rate conversion will reduce your audio
quality and consume a great deal of CPU power. Locking the sample rate
forces Windows to only use the hardware at the locked rate. In general, we
recommend you set the sample rate first in your audio application. Then,
lock that same rate within the console. Locking the sample rate is not really
necessary for applications that do not use the legacy wave/MME interface
(such as SONAR, Cubase, etc.).
Core Audio Sample Rate in Windows Vista
In Windows Vista, the Console displays the current sample rate in the
“Sample rate” control group as set by your audio software. In the figure
above, the sample rate readout is “48 kHz.”
You can also select the sample rate used by Vista Core Audio by clicking on
one of the sample rate buttons in the “Core Audio sample rate” control
group. You will see the buttons briefly turn red as Vista resets the sample
rate. After you change the Core Audio Sample Rate, you may need to go
into your Sound panel and reset your default audio device. The sample rate
you have just set will not actually appear in the “Sample rate” control group
until an audio application begins to play or record.
Note: Setting the sample rate using the “Core Audio sample rate”
control group does not affect ASIO.
