I just got the Motu 828mkii and I am using it with Windows 7 64-bit.
My goal is to use a sample rate higher than 44.1kHz (such as 48kHz). When I set the sample rate to 48000 in "MOTU Audio Console" and press Ok, the interface panel will display 48kHz, but as soon as I click the desktop or open a program in windows it resets to 44.1kHz immediately. When running a DAW like Cubase 5, set to 48000, it will reset as soon as a background application accesses windows sound. How do I keep it at a chosen sample rate?
Things I've tried:
- In control panel > sound: setting all Playback/Recording devices to 48000 in their respective properties. No luck
- In control panel > sound: Turning off "Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device" & "Give exclusive mode applications priority". No luck
*Also, is it necessary to change the device properties to match the interface sample rate?
