Sample rated maxed at 44100?

Post by pkolano » Fri May 10, 2024 5:26 pm

Hi,

Just switched from Logic and in Logic my sample rate I believe was 48k, but in Ableton it's 41k and I don't see an option to change it.
I'm on M1 Mac Mini 16GB ram.

Is there any difference in the end?

You can change it Live > Settings > Audio. You probably want to close the set, change the setting, and open it again… I cannot remember how Live reacts to that if the set is open

Whether there’s a difference depends on what you’re planning to do with the music, but for CD quality or streaming it’ll to be exported at 44.1 anyway. For Dolby Atmos or cinematic type audio, I believe it needs to higher

It’s listed as In/Out Sample Rate

Just so you know, that’s a global setting… So new sets/projects will default to 48 or whatever you decide to set it to

I know, but it's not clickable, there is no way to change it.

Looks like your headphone uses normal Bluetooth instead of LDAC.

From the specs:
Bluetooth 20 – 20.000 Hz (44,1 kHz sampling) / 20 – 40.000 Hz (LDAC 96 kHz sampling, 990 kbps)
