You can only do 16 and 24 bit rate but going out you can go from 16 to 32 float and sample rate from 44.1 to 96.

Only thing you can change is the bit rate. For the hardware. I don't see anywhere in the settings that allows you to change the sample rate.

Yeah was it standalone or the software you changed?


My guess is software if i look at his replies...

You're right. On indtalling there musy be a prompt that ask sample rate do you want. I cant remember that.
Engineers l work with want stems in 44.1k/24bit.

I just did an experimental beat and exported from the hardware the other day at export page I was able to choose from 16to24 bit and sample rates from 44.1 up to 96khz. I exported at 24bit 48khz as a finished beat. I believe in the software like Danoc said you have to set it up in preference at startup. I haven't really worked in the software yet I prefer the hardware and Logic Pro.

Yes sir!

I on that standalone stuff but when l saw whst coming with the software l got off that stuff quick lol when l do my drums l rock standalone.

Im going to go back to my old method where l played sounds into my MPC put them on pads and go to work. That was so much fun. Nit a lot of people work that way. Its just like sampling , you're just sampling yourself.

In my case, when I connect the MPC in controller mode to the live software (beta 2.0.1.11) AND use the MPC Live's ASIO driver, I am stuck with 48000 Hz sampling rate. The device control panel doesn't let me choose any other sample rate... Isn't this going to cause problems (jitter or drop outs) if the MPC Live is supposed to be running at 44100 internally?

There's little or no information about the sample rate settings in the manuals, except for the mixdown functions for both the software and hardware unit.

Someone mentioned setting the sample rate at the software startup but I haven't seen that option (I'm running a fresh install of the beta on a Windows 10 machine). So far, the only way to get another project sampling rate in the software is to use the driver from my other audio interface.
