Sample Rate set to 48, records at 44.1

[Johannes]

Hi,

we had great success this morning rehearsing classical music over the internet from Berlin to St.Gallen, fantastic!

We both had our interfaces set to 48kHz sampling rate, however, when I looked at the files from a test recording, I notice they are at 44.1kHz!

Question: Does JK just adjust the setting to 44.1 anyway? My MOTU certainly always showed 48kHz on the diplay. 
Or does it convert the rate at some stage, and at which stage does this happen?

We were going to make some videos, so we would prefer to record at 48kHz, is that possible? If not, I guess it is better to set the interfaces to 44.1 from the start.

A bit of a mystery to me.

Thanks, Johannes

I have quite the opposite situation. You have success, and JK reset the sample rate of your device. I am not having success, and my device is staying at 48k. Unfortunately, I don't yet see a way to change that. If it were possible to set JK to 148 that would be convenient for me.

This is the codec information from VLC Media Player:

PCM S24 LE (s24l) - 48000 Hz - bit per sample 32

I am not sure I follow: You want to record in 44,1 and it won't? Are you on Mac or Win? On Mac you may have to set this in Audio-Midi-Setup.

I found out that the original wav-files, when I keep them, are at the correct sample rate. That's good enough for me, I prefer to use those anyway.
