Setting Bit and Sample Rate for Recording in Win 10


 Share

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I record a demo with my UX2 via Cubase 8 Elements, Windows 10.

My Cubase project is set to 24 Bit 44.1 kHz.

But in the sound card recording settings in Windows, I see only two available options for my UX2:

- 16 Bit 44.1 kHz

- 16 Bit 48 kHz.

I would like to change bit rate to 24 Bit, but I can't find that option.

I have the latest drivers installed.

 

Does this mean that my UX2 records at 16 Bit, and I can't record at 24 Bit? How can I fix that?

The drop down menu changes as your UX unit is fed from your DAW software.

 

If you open a new project and set your DAW up for 24bit/44.1.....and set your Render output at 24biut/44.1 for the "project/song"

 

the UX unit will see that and adjust. then when you pull up your soundcard you will probably see the Driver Format change to you new setting. You can check the sound card playback&recording and the drop down selection list of bit/sample rate should offer different selections.

 

also for this to work the two boxes have to be checked in the windows that allows "exlusive control"....if the boxes arent checked they will not change as the different projects change.

 

most seem to recommend 44.1 or 48 for audio, it isnt a memory-hog and sounds as good to most ears. theres like 900 million threads about 44.1 offering 20khz which is the human ear etc....some say the 96khz puts invisible "eneergy" into places that effects the sound...and marketing likes new better improved to sell...aha
