focusrite sample rate issue

[maxsoren]

Hi, I'm using the focusrite scarlet 212.

When I open cakewalk, I check the sampling rate, it is 48, which seems to be it's default.

Next, I open focusrite, it's sampling rate is 44.1.

So I change sample rate to 48.

It reverts back to 44.1.

What am I doing wrong?

Might your Windows audio sample rate setting be a factor?

My recommendation is to start with Windows Settings/ Sound/Make sure to disable any device other than your Focusrite. 

in the Advanced Settings set the clock rate to 48/24  

In the Focusrite control panel set your clock rate to 48. 
 

Now open your Daw and don’t load a project and in settings/ preferences audio set default to 48. 
Now in Sonar/ Cakewalk load a blank template and look in the transport you should see 48 as the clock rate. 

 

Cakewalk will convert any audio to the project sample rate automatically when you drag it in or import.
