Hi,

am I right about that the MPC Live hardware only provides 44.1Khz/16 bit sample rate?

I am asking because I was told this by my W10 as well as my Cubase 9.5.

What I feel a bit confused about is this article:
http://www.akaipro.com/support/kb/artic ... -in-cubase

Akai states 'This will allow you to choose from a wide selection of Sample Rates.'

Ah. Really?

Thank you for any hint!

Cheers Sven

Ah ok, cool but strange. Akai's FAQ also tells about a lot of options:

In standalone, the MPC Live will operate at 44.1 kHz, 24-bit, for both input and output. When using as a controller/interface with the MPC 2.0 Software, the MPC Live can operate at either 44.1, 48, or 96 kHz, selectable from the MPC preferences.

My Cubase yesterday only allowed the 44.1/16 though...

Well, thanks - will give it another try to solve it.
